I have spoken to upstream about this and the problem is that the pytests of pynpoint all require external assets which cannot be reproduced by us. https://github.com/PynPoint/PynPoint/issues/432 The absence of autopkgtest isn't ideal. To fix that I suggest to implement a smoke test which tests pynpoint as a package. That way we have an autopkgtest which fails whenever pynpoint fails. Not ideal either but at least a step in the right direction.. What do you think? Best regards, -- Arian Ott [email protected]
