Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in stretch with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it)
but it failed:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is just how the build ends, not necessarily the relevant part.

I've put several build logs here:

https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/golang-github-google-gofuzz/

If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use reassign and affects,
so that this is still visible in the page for this package.

The bug should be reproducible with sbuild on a single CPU virtual machine,
provided you try enough times (as the failure happens randomly).

After building 200 times, the failure rate observed here is about 6%.

Thanks.
