I confirm that running only build time tests with --no-parallel is
sufficient.  I'm a bit astonished that this works despite my previous
analysis that $srcdir is not set.

Anyway thanks for the helpful hint

The parallel option is enabled by default for compat level >= 10, try
setting `dh --no-parallel` to disable the parallel option again.

Hi,

my last commit to squizz[1] breaks the build time tests.  This commit is

The reason why several tests are failing is that the scripts in test/
dir are trying to access for instance files seqdir=$srcdir/sequence but
the $srcdir variable is not properly set (its actually empty).  So
somehow setting d/compat to 10 does something else than simply
autoreconf.  I assumed that the debhelper 10 is actually enforcing
autoreconf which does not seem to be the case here.

Any idea what might be wrong?

Kind regards

   Andreas.
