Help running tests in python-biom-format

[Andreas Tille <andreas@an3as.eu>]

Hi,

since alioth is down I copied my current status of packaging of
python-biom-format here:

     http://blends.debian.net/tmp/packages/python-biom-format/

I tried to activate tests via

override_dh_auto_test:
        cd python-code/; nosetests

but this results in

cd python-code/; nosetests
....................................................................................................................................E.............................................................................

ImportError: No module named _sparsemat

Ran 318 tests in 0.580s


The problem is that this test also fails if the package is installed
so it is not actually a Build time issue.  I wonder why

   /usr/lib/pyshared/python2.7/biom/_sparsemat.so

inside the package is not properly found.

Any ideas?

Kind regards

       Andreas.
