Your change did not disable running the tests with nocheck. If dh_auto_test didn't seem to behave as documented as you claim, and you did test your change as you claim, then you would have seen that tests are still running with nocheck set. The only effect of your change was disabling the tests when nocheck was NOT set. > Greets, > Lee cu Adrian
