Thank you so much for your help! And your patience!! :) > > > As I said this is somehow wrong since in autopkgtest no compilation > is needed. I removed all this.

It took a while but finally the actual way autopkgtest is working has started to 'sink in' ! > > I think to finalise the test it would make sense to compare the test > result with the result that was obtained at compile time.

If there is another package that urgently needs an autopkgtest let me know, i am open to suggestions ! Otherwise i was thinking to have my next try with mac package (bug n. 879622) Thank you again! Kind regards, Kate
