Usually you would want to run the autopkgtests in a tempdir rather than inplace, since you want to check whether the "installed" package works or not, and not the source tree. Simple solution is to copy the tests dir to a tempdir and run the tests there. I did not do that for your previous package because the test structure was messy and was failing on copying the test dirs. But even after doing so tests were failing since the package did not build the extensions for all supported py versions, it rather built only the default one (_align.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so) so we needed to change the B-D from python3-dev to python3-all-dev, after which the package got green on autopkgtests. Please take a look at my commits. Best, Nilesh
