In some packages (recently python-cogent) I decided to exclude parts of
the test suite.  This at least documents what tests are failing and puts
this on a todo list for later inspection.  My guess is that if we do not
provide the Debian packages people will install the software manually
without running the tests and might have the very same problems as in
the package without noticing.  Creating a bug report in addition with
something like "Please fix problems if full test suite is activated"
would raise the awareness of the issues which otherwise simply stay
hidden.

What do you think?

Kind regards

      Andreas.
