Hi Paul,
I think Benjamin led you astray with this comment:
> 4. 0001-utest-autopkgtest.patch is not needed. You can override it
with `make test LIBTRACEEVENT_STATIC="-ltraceevent"`
This variable is *not* override-able without your patch -- it will just
be assigned unconditionally in the Makefile. When I ran autopkgtest
locally with your current patch, it fails:
```
autopkgtest [11:50:49]: test command1: LIBTRACEEVENT_STATIC=$(dpkg -L
libtraceevent-dev | grep libtraceevent.so) make test && ./utest/trace-utest

```
Restoring the patch to make LIBTRACEEVENT_STATIC override-able fixes
this.
One other thing that would be nice, but is not strictly necessary, would
be to give the autopkgtest a user-friendly name, e.g. 'trace-utest'. You
can do this by adding `Features: test-name=trace-utest` to the
appropriate stanza in debian/tests/control. Otherwise, the test is
called 'command1', which is fine, but not ideal.
I don't think we need to block on upstream, but as Benjamin suggested,
please do forward the patches (after fixing the above) to upstream, and
add a `Forwarded: <URL to upstream PR>` header to the appropriate patch
files.
Thanks for your continued effort on this.
