I'd recommend to use our autopkgtest boilerplate which you can find in our package_template: https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/community/package_template/-/tree/master/debian/tests Hope this helps and please do not hesitate to keep on asking here or on the mailing list debian-...@lists.debian.org in case you might face any trouble Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
