Hi Yaroslav,

   I'm still working on the packaging of fw4spl, and I'm faced with a new
   problematic : One of the unit tests needs to load an important data file,
   which has a big size (~200 Mo).

such large data arrays are worth their own packages... then you could
have build-depend on it... before that -- indeed just disable that test

Ok thank you !

   Should I simply remove this test, or can I include the data file in the
   package ?

IMHO too big/too static (I bet) to be included  and then shipped again
and again and again with any new upstream software release.
I was speaking with a Debian Mentor about this situation, and he tells me that
I could use the multi-orig.tar.gz, to don't add the test data for every new
upstream release.

Hoping it will help someone one day...


Thank you for your time !

Best regards,


Corentin Desfarges
