Hello
The attached commit suggests a third option.
If you call the scripts with an explicit interpreter,
they need no execution rights in the first place.

Subject: autotests: in test-lib.sh, call tty{on,off} with an explicit
 interpreter

Explicit interpreters are usually discouraged so the calling code is
not broken by changes in the implementation, but in this case,
autotests/tty{on,off} are private helpers for autotests/test-lib.sh.

With an explicit interpreter, the scripts do not need execution rights.
Closes: #981422.

Unfortunately, dpkg does not see these new files because it first
applies an autogenerated patch. At least, .debian.tar.xz archive has no
files I mentioned in the include-binaries list.

Any ideas how to preserve executable bit of new files in other way?

For now, I see only one option: manually chmod +x either by the
debian/rules patch target or repeated for dh_auto_test and in the
autopkgtest runner.

There are several ways to fix the failure.

1. Replace `debian/rules patch` line in a test script with `chmod +x
autotests/tty{on,off}`.

I still prefer the later option with the "patch" target. Because that
chmod fixes flaws of quilt and dpkg and this solutions is more
universal. I hope someone will choose to upload another one-liner fix.


You can ship the files directly in the debian.tar by adding them to 
debian/source/include-binaries, and that way you don't need to call chmod as 
their mode will be preserved. That would probably help with this autopkgtest 
patch issue.


Cheers,
Emilio

Please drop patching from the test entirely. autopkgtests are supposed
to _start_ running against a fully patched source tree. autopkgtest(1)
does this automatically.

I understand that this might be convenient when working on the package,
but please automate it in a way that it's not also done when running the
autopkgtest "for real".

Dear maintainer(s),

You recently added an autopkgtest to your package xdg-utils, great.
However, it fails. Currently this failure is blocking the migration to
testing [1]. Can you please investigate the situation and fix it?

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report. Seems like
your missing test dependencies.
