Package: dh-python
Version: 4.20200315
Severity: normal

Hello,
it looks like the only way to skip tests for the -dbg interpreter flavor is

export PYBUILD_DISABLE=test/python2-dbg
export PYBUILD_DISABLE=test/python3-dbg

(for example PYBUILD_DISABLE_python2-dbg=test does not work, which is extremely
confusing and unintuitive).

which is not documented either in pybuild manpage or on the wiki page
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/Pybuild .

I think pybuild would greatly benefit if there could be a complete and detailed
documentation of all the variables that can be exported and what behaviour they
change and how.

Thanks,
Sandro
