I'll never understand why people do that ... once Debian adds
succeeding autopkg
tests as a requirement for migration to testing your're screwed.
Well, if the testsuite still fails by that time, I'll remove the test…
No big deal.
other distros (e.g. Ubuntu) already use that.
You really should mark these as XFAIL (expected to fail) and still
succeed the test.
I agree that marking it as XFAIL would be the best thing to do, but
autopkgtest does not provide such a feature (or am I missing
something?).
test frameworks should provide that, or else you are on your own adding a
wrapper.
