Package: autopkgtest Version: 4.2 Severity: wishlist -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256
Dear Maintainer, Occassionally I'm testing a new package version that has new dependencies which aren't yet in Debian. I can build the ITP'd packages locally and build the new package version with e.g. sbuild's - --extra-package arguments. Although it's moderately inconvenient to add a bunch of debs, it does work. But I don't know that autopkgtest has a similar feature. It would need to build the new package with the extra debs and run the tests after installing the extra debs. - -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.8.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages autopkgtest depends on: ii apt-utils 1.3.1 ii libdpkg-perl 1.18.14 ii procps 2:3.3.12-2 ii python3 3.5.1-4 ii python3-debian 0.1.29 Versions of packages autopkgtest recommends: ii autodep8 0.8 Versions of packages autopkgtest suggests: pn lxc <none> pn lxd-client <none> pn qemu-system <none> pn qemu-utils <none> ii schroot 1.6.10-2+b2 - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEhBcVftvnPZ6sHlObEm61Y6dLBr8FAlgrkWEACgkQEm61Y6dL Br98Ig/9ELcitiz/bM+nvqFmPf4CCLXZ+Khg2tWFHCyQbZxPGkvPQ4kIc0AHpRxV roKDSPzuaoc6nrF81vHTMpLcY5n7X+2SpQUSUaPbZ3Y4whvIxW0ixHdCCqCblOZ1 iyRaZr3EgDe53CXl2EA1uepMIYkhc7mDb9FH6QgW108RXRN48Alv7PEvKtCnWYi4 Dbb2BQG7S4T82itAkmBrPiAM2yhFLFKrvFDxRaNfNaLv72D75pPbcmqP4RiwGmMO AvSeaAnjBMfmu6riJgidZc2A31rHrYy1gK6UkI7WDWJiJN6QF8ESzXix04npIHHN kq+RhJ7RL/Y4WVzSvn1HU+dyZYQpJ/54K+m3bCgS91AaR4dcTFaWEux2RXtqWRos 6PjXap/Wv4r57cE5g97ZIpyoFiYs99o4hGS1UyGLxZGlKAf1zHBW6F2+9/SiRWry Yc0s8x6GE8JLozE9+nHeSzy/OYBrIn0fPEJTYNAUCnjTzPwXZZe+Jzw8tCf6oTH4 jnpkCfTemCQDc1shIA7+DoX4hdJjh3Laf37FEV/2Lgn0KcDfuQOyS2fJS7GgTdgX 9euVNex6iI/CzSCe4re7sOJxZ5kSldUmFX9HyRAnwzXibo8JBYxhoHBCx85atIGI 5UZOMby7m2E5Rcs45Kc+C18HVQnnC8Nq7XYrR+9lKPBPwnwPg0s= =kTUe -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
