for the packages I maintain, I am now replacing the regression tests
that were ran during the build process by autopkgtest test suites.
http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep8/
(see http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/auto-pkg-test.html
while Alioth-hosted sites seem to be in trouble)
If this eventually becomes the norm, then we will not need "nocheck"
build option or profile anymore.
DEP-8 tests are not supposed to _replace_ build-time tests. They have
different, though overlapping to a large degree, purposes.
This reminds that the specification badly needs a "Philosophical
Introduction" chapter...
