Bug Description
[impact]
the 'dieharder' test eats entropy from haveged for hours, and hours, and hours. On armhf it takes over 12 hours and fails the test because it times out.
[test case]
run haveged autopkgtest, especially on armhf, e.g.:
https:/
[regression potential]
this change just runs the haveged build tests, so any regression would likely involve incorrectly failed (or passed) autopkgtest.
[scope]
this is needed on b/f/g; there are no autopkgtests for haveged on x.
I don't think debian has the same test hardware, so they likely only test on arm64, which takes a few hours, but passes, so this is only required in debian to reduce ubuntu delta.

This bug was fixed in the package haveged - 1.9.8-4ubuntu2
---------------
haveged (1.9.8-4ubuntu2) groovy; urgency=medium
* d/t/control, d/t/dieharder, d/t/run-tests:
- Remove dieharder test, as it takes hours (12+ on armhf)
and doesn't really "test" any part of haveged
- Add autopkgtest to just run make check
- LP: #1894290
