Hi ! I'm the current maintainer of pytest in Debian, and have lend a hand a couple of times with codespeak-lib as well.
I haven't looked at codespeaklib testsuite yet, but it would not surprise me that it is intended to be run by pytest, since pytest was originately part of codespeak-lib and upstream is still the same on both projects. I've raised the question of circular build-deps in #debian-mentors, and it seems to be a very bad idea, because unfortunate circumstances would force a manual intervention on the buildds if the maintainers both screw up at approximately the same time. In our case it actually not such a big problem for Debian since the arch:all binary packages are all built by the maintainer, but I assume you guys rebuild every thing, right ? What I would do is run the test suite using the DEP8 stuff, which is NOT run at build time and thus is less likely to cause problem. It seems that you already have some infrastructure in place for it as mentioned in https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/06/msg00457.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1006709 Title: [MIR] pytest, codespeak-lib To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/codespeak-lib/+bug/1006709/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
