What do you think about this problem? Does it make sense to extend pkg-perl-tools/autopkgtest to honor some debian/test/pkg-perl/set-env variable? While writing this, I noted, that there already exists debian/tests/pkg-perl/smoke-env for this, but this is only used in the build-deps test.
Ack, I think I've seen situations where I had set some env variable for the smoke test but couldn't do this for others.
Would you accept a merge request for pkg-perl-tools, that reads debian/tests/pkg-perl/syntax-env in runtime-deps-and-recommends.d/syntax.t like this?
At first glance I see no problems with this approach. Let's see what others (like Niko, who wrote most of the autopkgtest stuff) have to say.
Not sure if we want a specific debian/tests/pkg-perl/syntax-env or a generic debian/test/pkg-perl/{set-,}env for all tests …
