test-conversion appears to be failing on alpha hosts as reported below,
and seen here: https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=guile-2.2&arch=alpha&ver=2.2.4%2B1-1&stamp=1533027639&raw=0

I’m afraid there’s not much we can do.  Unless someone with access to an
Alpha machine can debug the issue, I’d close it as “wontfix”.

WDYT?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

I don't have access to a porterbox in Debian anymore either, and the
port is no longer officially supported:

  https://www.debian.org/ports/alpha/

(Though it is still active on the buildds:
https://buildd.debian.org/guile-3.0.)  In any case, I'd be fine closing
it +wontfix.  Could always re-open it if were to become a priority
again somehow.

Thanks
