Build/test passes locally but fails on hydra?

[Hartmut Goebel]

Hi,

I wonder how it can happen that a build resp. test passes locally but
fails on hydra. I'd assume on both machines the containers are set up
the same. Any ideas?

Specific it is kdelibs4support-5.49.0 address@hidden 05:28:26}
<https://hydra.gnu.org/build/3296401> where the test shown below fails
at hydra. The test passes on my local machine.
