Ah, ok.

build/lib.linux-s390x-3.7/borg/testsuite/archiver.py::RemoteArchiverTestCase::test_extract_capabilities
SKIPPED [ 15%]

That is the last line in the log.

But as it says skipped, I suspect in hangs in the test afterwards.

If it is that, it will be fixed in borg 1.1.10.

Somehow this is a bug that only bit sometimes, just rerunning the test
can make it pass.

The real fix will be in 1.1.10, it was a problem when the master
hardlink content chunks did not get preloaded (because not selected for
extraction), but the (selected) slave hardlink expected it to be
preloaded...

Cool. :)

I've made a PR from your patches and will try to have that in 1.1.10 also.
