[Bug 1980695] [NEW] please remove pgloader binaries from armhf

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Steve Langasek (vorlon):

pgloader 3.6.6-1 FTBFS on armhf. As described below, it was never meant
to run in that architecture. Please, remove the pgloader binary for
armhf from the archive in kinetic.

The armhf build currently fails with:

== BEGIN LOGS ===
pgloader  --regress allcols.load
KABOOM!
FATAL error: There is no thread support in this instance.
An unhandled error condition has been signalled:
   There is no thread support in this instance.

What I am doing here?

There is no thread support in this instance.

make[2]: *** [Makefile:125: regress/out/allcols.out] Error 1

== END LOGS ===

This is due to recent changes in the package build process: we now run
the test suite during the package build.

Going through the DEP8 test history, one will see that this package
never passed any tests in that architecture:

https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/p/pgloader/focal/armhf
https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/p/pgloader/jammy/armhf
https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/p/pgloader/kinetic/armhf

As per
https://github.com/dimitri/pgloader/issues/1101
this package is not usable in armhf as is.

The possible alternatives here seem to be to either drop the package
from armhf and circle back later if there is a solution for the upstream
bug linked above, or to use a different lisp implementation.

Since the current Debian package build is strongly coupled with sbcl, we
could drop the package from armhf for now and track the issue here.
