[Debian-med-packaging] Please help fixing test suite of microbiomeutil

[Andreas Tille]

Hi,

when I touched the microbiomeutil package I noticed that build time
tests were switched of via

#Kill the tests just now - they take too long.
override_dh_auto_test :
        true

I do not consider this a good reason and switched these on at least
for powerful architectures.  The bad news is that the test fails but
this is probably easy to solve for a Perl programmer:

...
converting NAST mfasta to multi-alignment output highlighting differences
../show_malign_no_gap.pl --IGNOREGAPS tmp.both.NAST > tmp.both.NAST.malign


Run via the megablast wrapper
Can't locate Fasta_reader.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Fasta_reader module) (@INC contains: /usr/lib/NAST-iEr/PerlLib /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.22.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.22.1 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.22 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.22 /usr/share/perl/5.22 /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base .) at ../run_NAST-iEr.pl line 12.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ../run_NAST-iEr.pl line 12.
Makefile:4: recipe for target 'test' failed
...


Fasta_reader.pm is part of the source tarball but for some reason it
will not be found.  I'd be interested in "the right way to solve this".

For your comfort I have converted the packaging from SVN to Git (which
has ACLs set to grant any DD commit permissions):

   git://anonscm.debian.org/debian-med/microbiomeutil.git

Any help would be welcome

    Andreas.
