No worries, thanks for the response.

Apart from adding a test dependency on python3-all to install all versions, I don't know how to test for all installed versions. Maybe ask the maintainers of python3-defaults?

Thanks for the explanation. Are you saying there is a better way to detect which Python versions are installed? That is, “Python 3 versions which have the standard library installed for use at run-time”? -- \ “In any great organization it is far, far safer to be wrong | `\ with the majority than to be right alone.” —John Kenneth | _o__)Galbraith, 1989-07-28 | Ben Finney
Bug#915133: python-coverage: autopkgtest needs update for new version of python3-defaults
Source: python-coverage Version: 4.5.1+dfsg.1-1 User: debian...@lists.debian.org Usertags: needs-update Control: affects -1 src:python3-defaults [X-Debbugs-CC: debian...@lists.debian.org, python3-defau...@packages.debian.org ] Dear maintainers, With a recent upload of python3-defaults (that switched the default python3 from 3.6 to 3.7) the autopkgtest of python-coverage fails in testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages of python3-defaults from unstable. It passes when run with only packages from testing. In tabular form: passfail python3-defaults from testing3.7.1-2 python-coveragefrom testing4.5.1+dfsg.1-1 all others from testingfrom testing I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report. The error points at the situation where python3.6-minimal is installed, but not python3.6. However, your autopkgtest uses $(py3versions -i) and assumes that the zipfile module is installed, while it doesn't make sure that it is. Your autopkgtest should have a dependency on python3-all if you want to test all installed python3 versions (py3versions tells which python3.*-minimal versions are installed).
