commit 744754c913b49d9b62d7b92cce2678f9d7108eeb
Author: Niko Tyni <nt...@debian.org>

Support executing debian/tests/pkg-perl/smoke-setup as a last resort
A small number of packages need specific tweaks like creating
directories or generating part of the test suite before actually
running it, and there's a point where declarative configuration
just doesn't work anymore.
Closes: #799486
