Oh right, treating exit status 77 as "skipped test which was declared skippable", is probably newer. I guess that is autopkgtest (5.4) unstable; urgency=medium * Add support for tests declaring themselves to have been skipped -- Paul Gevers <elbrus@debian.org> Mon, 02 Jul 2018 11:50:21 +0200 Although buster has 5.10, so I'm not sure about the exact timeline even if the symptoms fit together. On the perl side: https://bugs.debian.org/922264 (quite lengthy) Aha, this points to a change in autodep8 which was merged exactly a year ago, and the release is newer than buster: autodep8 (0.19) unstable; urgency=medium * perl support: use tags skippable and superficial -- Paul Gevers <elbrus@debian.org> Fri, 13 Sep 2019 21:49:46 +0200 So yeah, this works fine on testing an unstable, and probably with the autodep8 from buster-backports, but not in pure buster. ("Works fine" includes all Debian infrastructure, at least I'm not aware of any autopkgtest failure because of this exit 77.)
