Bug#1061151: asymptote: should run tests at build time

[Sven Joachim <svenjoac@gmx.de>]

Your package has a test suite that probably should be run at build time,
but it is not.  I looked at the git repository and found that it has
been disabled since at least 2015:

This leaves me rather puzzled: why exactly would it bad if make tries to
compile prc/test.cc?

Note that the test suite is run in an autopkgtest since version
2.73+ds-2, so it apparently works.

Cheers,
