However, we just have seen that not all team members are even building in a chroot. My guess is that not everybody is running autopkgtest before uploading. Thus just running the build time test if available can at least ensure proper builds. > On Mon, 21 Jun 2021 at 10:46, Andreas Tille <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hmmmm, but this looks like an attempt to access some remote location. > > Works now > https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/mcaller/-/jobs/1716727 Nice. > > I'm not sure.

Whatever might be faster out of "asking upstream" or running with --train argument and make a diff. If the latter works its IMHO relatively safe to assume that this method was used and mentioning this in d/README.Source as "it was verified that the data can be reprocuded by" should do the trick.
