[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#845737: Also new upstream version has test failures

[Andreas Tille]

Hi Kevin,

you injected a "Closes: #845737" in the latest changelog but I get:


======================================================================
FAIL: tests.tests.test_symlink_time_handling
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):

FAILED (failures=1)
E: pybuild pybuild:276: test: plugin distutils failed with: exit code=1: cd /build/snakemake-3.9.0+dfsg/.pybuild/pythonX.Y_3.5/build; python3.5 -m nose tests


So if there is no sensible explanation why this test might fail in a
chroot disconnected from the net this bug is not closed.  In case the
error occures due to the attempt to access some online resources the
test needs to be excluded.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
