I got this job from successful build [Travis CI - Test and Deploy with Confidence](https://travis-ci.org/ctlab/phantasus/jobs/452899717)
And this job from failed build [Travis CI - Test and Deploy with Confidence](https://travis-ci.org/ctlab/phantasus/jobs/454405098)
They are building the same commit, so i assume that the problem is not in the repo.
The reason of failing build is
> /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgfortran
gfortran used to be installing by default and now it disappeared.
Not sure if it a bug. Should i add gfortran to travis configuration explicitly now?

I think it should be enabled by default but try setting `fortran: true` just in case.

Seems like a duplicate of [R docker failing to download el-capitan.dmg - Environments / macOS - Travis CI Community](https://travis-ci.community/t/r-docker-failing-to-download-el-capitan-dmg/486)
EDIT: this is for Linux but the reason is the same.
