(Please CC me as I'm not subscribed to debian-devel) Hello,
I am currently trying to update src:kiwi to its latest upstream version to fix #1069389 [1]. The problem that I am now stuck with is that the testsuite uses the entry_points class to test for the available kiwi.tasks. It looks like something like this: from importlib_metadata import entry_points for entry in dict.get(entry_points(), 'kiwi.tasks'): discovered_tasks[entry.name] = entry.load() However, that fails because the kiwi module needs to be either installed for entry_points() to find "kiwi.tasks" or the PYTHONPATH needs to include the build directory below ".pybuild". Otherwise, entry_points() will not include "kiwi.tasks" and the testsuite fails. I noticed that entry_points() will also work as expected if the python interpretor is run from within the build directory below ".pybuild", so I tried adding the following to debian/rules according to [2]: export PYTHONPATH = $(CURDIR) export PYBUILD_TEST_ARGS_python3 = cd {build_dir}; python{version} -m discover That doesn't work unfortunately and entry_points() still fails and there doesn't seem to be much documentation available for pybuild which explains how to adjust PYTHONPATH for running the testuite. Note that I tried this with kiwi 10.0.16 plus the patch from [3]. I put up a little reproducer in [4]. Does anyone know how to make pybuild set the proper PYTHONPATH so that entry_points() works while running the testsuite?
