Comment 1 for bug 1941745

# Note

Currently facing a problem with dh_auto_test: while running test w/ avocado-framework.

Avocado is not packaged in Ubuntu/Debian, and requires to be installed via 'pip3 install avocado-framework' which doesn't seem to be accepted by the builder.

Tried severals scenarios such as:

# d/rules:
override_dh_auto_test:
        pip3 install avocado-framework
 export PYTHONPATH=tests/
 avocado run -t stageone tests/{cleaner,collect,report,vendor}_tests

but got the following error at build time from my PPA:

debian/rules override_dh_auto_test
make[1]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'
pip3 install avocado-framework

Still under investigation.

I might have no other option but to package avocado-framework and add it as a Build-Depends, as I'm not a fan of disabling dh_auto_test: .
