Draft: Try to fix build on mips64el

Simon McVittierequested to merge
wip/1042980 into debian/master

  • Add patch to avoid error-prone ELF header parsing, fixing build on mips64el

    Helps: #1042980

  • d/rules: Increate arbitrary test timeouts

    The default test timeout is 30 seconds, but the perf-* tests take more like 45 seconds on mips64el.

    Helps: #1042980

This isn't fully working yet. The tests are still failing for me on eller, with:

GNOME Shell-Message: 11:41:00.189: Registering session with GDM
(EE) failed to write to Xwayland fd: Broken pipe

Please could you investigate further? It would also be useful to know whether this gnome-shell version works or crashes on real mips hardware (build with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck if necessary).
