These are my findings:

1) debian/tests/*.sh scripts install a python package called 'world'[0], a new version of that package was uploaded in August 24th (version 4.0), this new version requires python >=3.4[1], so d/t/pip2-*.sh need to install world==3.1
2) pip tries to build a wheel during the installation of world using "python setup.py bdist_wheel", bdist_wheel is provided by python{,3}-wheel, which it is NOT a dependency of python{,3}-pip, it's in the "Recommends" section, so debian/tests/control needs to include "Restrictions: needs-recommends".

Having made the changes previously described I could run autopkgtest without errors:

I'm attaching a new version of the patch that fixes these problems.
