thanks

Please don't use the unreproducible tag in this way.

The bug says "FTBFS in testing", not simply "FTBFS", so the only way
to reproduce it is by trying it in testing, where it was reported to
fail.

If a report said that "ls -l" segfaults, we would never tag it as
unreproducible after checking that "ls" alone or "ls --color" does not
segfault.

If the bug is already fixed in sid, fine, let's call it "already fixed
in sid". If the package build-depends on another package which is
buggy in stretch and already fixed in sid, fine as well, let's
consider it fixed and let's close the bug.

But please let us use "unreproducible" only for things we don't really know
how to reproduce, which is not the case here.

Thanks.
