Thanks a lot. I would have never guessed that.
Meanwhile, I found the following alternative approach in the README.rst [1]:
dh_auto_test -- --system=custom --test-args='{interpreter} setup.py test'
Your suggestion looks cleaner. If it works, I'll use it. If not, I'll stick to the
approach above as it actually works. Took me forever to figure this all out.
I think this information could be added to the Pybuild page on the Debian wiki [2].
