Hello, I'm packaging a Python application, ocrmypdf [1], that has a test suite run by py.test. Most of the tests fail because they try to call the /usr/bin/ocrmypdf script. This script doesn't exist until after debhelper has run setup.py, which generates it using its "entry points script" feature. And this comes after dh_auto_test. The only solution I've come up with is producing my own entry point script and putting it into $PATH for the test suite to use. But that rather defeats the purpose of testing the actual package's contents. What would be the most elegant way to handle this? Can anyone point me to a package that had a similar issue with the test suite needing a file not yet generated? Thanks. [1] https://github.com/jbarlow83/OCRmyPDF -- Sean Whitton
