Source: grepmail X-Debbugs-Cc: marcos@talau.info, eriberto@debian.org Version: 5.3104-1 Severity: serious Justification: RC policy Dear Marcos, Joao, I appreciate your attention to the orphaned package grepmail and the fact that you try to save it from removal from testing, but in the process you added and autopkgtest that doesn't do anything at all. I played around with it a tiny bit, and the reason it doesn't run anything is because dh_auto_test doesn't detect a known framework. Why dh_auto_test works during building is that during build a Makefile is generated in one of the steps before testing and dh_auto_test executes the test target in that. For this to work, the autopkgtest at least needs more of the Build-Depends, otherwise the test fails. I ran the following manually in the testbed after checking what code was actually run during the test on the buildd and it currently fails all tests: PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 "/usr/bin/perl" "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-MTest::Harness" "-e" "undef *Test::Harness::Switches; test_harness(1, 'inc', 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t Before fixing this, please ensure you're testing the as-installed binary instead of the code in the source tree, as the intention of autopkgtest is to test the package, not the source, as I believe you're not testing /usr/bin/grepmail Paul -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.14.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled
