Bug#865531: lintian: testsuite-autopkgtest-missing checks the wrong thing
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.51
Severity: normal
lintian complains with testsuite-autopkgtest-missing when debian/control
is missing the "Testsuite" field but that field is usually not present
in the unpacked source package because it is automatically added by
dpkg-source to the .dsc when it finds debian/tests/control.
So instead you should check that field in the .dsc or directly
debian/tests/control in the unpacked source package.
Cheers,
