50 debian/control's build-dependencies list a bunch of things that i think
\r
51 are only relevant for running the tests (e.g. dtach -- and maybe emacs
\r
52 and bash-completion and other packages).
\r
54 These should be marked <!nocheck> so that dpkg-buildpackage can know to
\r
55 ignore them when trying to build with BUILD_DEB_OPTIONS=nocheck.
\r
57 This is called a "build profile", if you want to look up more about it:
\r
59 https://wiki.debian.org/BuildProfileSpec
\r
60 https://bugs.debian.org/757760
\r
62 I'd send a patch, but i'm not entirely sure which packages are strictly
\r
63 for the build-time tests, so i hope someone with more experience with
\r
64 the debian package can mark them appropriately. Thanks!
