Public bug reported: I was initially looking at why a recently synced version of the suds package from Debian failed to build in Xenial [1]. It appears to be a problem with running the Python 3 tests with pytest:
I: pybuild base:184: cd '/«PKGBUILDDIR»/.pybuild/pythonX.Y_3.5/build'; python3.5 -m pytest tests /usr/bin/python3.5: No module named pytest Looking further, I grabbed the python3-pytest deb from Xenial, this is the entire contents: talbert@bear:~$ dpkg --contents python3-pytest_2.8.7-1_all.deb drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/bin/ -rwxr-xr-x root/root 299 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/bin/py.test-3 drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/lib/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/share/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/share/python3/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/share/python3/runtime.d/ -rwxr-xr-x root/root 56 2016-02-08 17:23 ./usr/share/python3/runtime.d/python3-pytest.rtremove -rwxr-xr-x root/root 227 2016-02-08 17:23 ./usr/share/python3/runtime.d/python3-pytest.rtinstall drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/share/doc/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/share/doc/python3-pytest/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 3321 2016-02-08 17:23 ./usr/share/doc/python3-pytest/copyright -rw-r--r-- root/root 1677 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/share/doc/python3-pytest/changelog.Debian.gz -rw-r--r-- root/root 3042 2016-01-24 17:23 ./usr/share/doc/python3-pytest/README.rst drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/share/man/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/share/man/man1/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 3578 2016-02-09 08:19 ./usr/share/man/man1/py.test-3.1.gz It looks like the package is missing a lot of files.
