For now we should

• [ ] Remove debian 10 to unlock the CI
• [ ] Find the reason why CI script did not found the issue in the past until now.

@jcvenegas Related debian bug can be found here:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=960271

I see that there is an update yesterday 10 Jun 2020, that they have pushed a fix:

We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of
linux, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive.

@jcvenegas @GabyCT We can try again to see if the CI has been fixed. OBS may take longer to fix.
