Hi Julian,

nice. However, it first builds the program and then tests that,
rather than the package from the archive.  This is not very useful,
as changes in reverse dependencies could cause breakage at runtime
which might vanish after a rebuild.

(followed by suggestion of how to fix this)

If Sven's patch works, you would also be able to drop most of the
test-time dependencies and depend only on asymptote itself (and maybe
one or two other packages), as you would not need to build asymptote.


Currently it does not, but I did not find the time yet to refine it and get it running. Once this is done I can test if all Deps of the test suite are really needed, I guess a few of them are not surplus, but we'll see.
