I tried to bypass the test in https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:bnavigator:branches:devel:languages:python:numeric/python-control but the PowerPC platform seems to have bigger problems. The tests of the python-slycot package fail unpredictably with wrong numerical results in ppc64 and ppc64le. Every rerun yields different array mismatches. I had disabled those platforms in the devel package because of this. This affects the python-control package because it makes heavy use of the Slycot routines. I suspect there exist LAPACK library or Fortran compiler problems on PowerPC.
