firefox on this machine, apt on the rpi4. I do all this stuff over an ssh 
login. What I need is a sources.list line that correctly parses that 
well buried directory.

FYI I blew away that clone on the rpi4 and cloned another.  That file is 
there and the first script runs thru runtests nicely. But the make clean 
in dpkg-buildpackage still deletes that 
tests/tool-info/random-with-startup-tool/simpocket.tbl.orig file fairly 
early in the buildpackage phase. So you cannot do a git pull and rerun 
the scripts as runtests then fails on that missing file.

Is it safe to change the buildpackage options to kill that make clean 
when its being done immediately after runtests has completed, or should 
I just add the checkout line that re-creates it in front of the runtests 
in the first script? I am doing the same test run on the wheezy install 
right now but I expect it will delete that file too.

If I put that git checkout line in the first script, right in front of 
runtests, I should probably comment it out for the first run after a 
fresh clone, or should I surround it with the +x to make it continue 
anyway? It looks to me like the dpkg-buildpackage's dh-clean is cleaning 
more that plain .o's and one of us should file a bug against it.

The rpi4, on an apt upgrade just now pulled a new gitlib but I doubt if 
that effects this.  It updated 20 some packages and I rebooted it.

Thanks Andy, for your patience while trying to get 2.8 out the door.

OTOH, I've been screwing with this for a week and am looking for any fix 
that works. I started doing builds on wheezy just to see if it screwed 
up too, and it does exactly the same thing.  Both of those 2 machines 
are running on SSD's so build times are reasonable. SSD's on a usb3 port 
are quick so the rpi4 is only about 5 minutes behind at the end of 
runtests.

I have an experimental buildpackage running with the -nc option on both, 
and I put a 
../git checkout 
tests/tool-info/random-with-startup-tool/simpockets.tbl.orig
in front of runtests just to see if it throws an error when the file 
still exists.

Stay well now.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
