Package: autopkgtest Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: par...@debian.org Adding a pocket via --apt-pocket=<POCKET> causes the _get_default_release() function to be called. This is needed to construct the sources.list entry for the pocket, which will be in the form of:
deb <mirror> <default_release>-<POCKET> ... The _get_default_release() function caches the detected default release in the default_release variable, which is the same variable used to store the --apt-default-release=<RELEASE> value. This has no effect when only one test is present in d/t/control, but when more than one test is present the tests after the first will have unwanted/wrong pinning (as if --apt-default-release was specified).
