Hi, Currently I am working on the debianization of oct2py[1] which is a bridge between Python an GNU Octave. When the tests are running the docstrings are displayed in a terminal pager making impossible run all tests without human interaction to close the pager. I've found this really annoying if someone wants to build the package even the build process might fail if it's running on an automated enviroment. I could't find an elegant way to disable the terminal pager. Since I've noticed that the terminal pager does not run when the package is built with cowbuilder I've added a workarround that is: override_dh_auto_test: python2 -m unittest discover -v > /dev/null python3 -m unittest discover -v > /dev/null This avoids the annoying pager, but I am not happy with this solution and I am not sure if it's correct. Anyone of you know how disable the terminal pager in an elegant way? Here is the repo url, if anyone wants to check it out[2] Thanks [1]: https://github.com/blink1073/oct2py [2]: http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/python-modules/packages/oct2py/ --- Josue Ortega «Happy Hacking» http://josueortega.org
