You have two options here :
- if sigtest is not used by an essential part of asm4 (for instance, if
sigtest is only used for unit testing), you can choose to add a patch in your
asm4 package to disable usage of sigtest until it's available in Debian
- you can then choose to package sigtest, and yes, you will need to submit an
ITP (see [1])
