Sure!
The summary page is
http://earth.esa.int/services/sample_products/
the url of the product to be downloaded for test is
http://earth.esa.int/services/sample_products/meris/LRC/L2/MER_LRC_2PTGMV20000620_104318_00000104X000_00000_00000_0001.N1.gz

Uhm, how much is it important to test the package at build time?
In this case we are talking about a small python extension and the test
suite consists in 224 unit tests.
In this case I'm a little reluctant to include *that* data in debian
archive (after all the upstream package is distributed without it).
Anyway if testing the package at build time is considered very important
I can try to contact ESA and ask for more details about license terms
for re-distribution.
