Not really, other than that:

suggests that the snakemake binary must appear on $PATH before the test suite is run, which is the other way round from what is done by dh (i.e. test before install). To be honest, I thought we'd fixed this. Were there some patches that went missing while the backport package was being created? If it works in sid/stretch, I can't see why it would magically break in backports.

As a possibly relevant aside, I saw that there's now a new snakemake version (3.13.0), though the changelog[0] doesn't mention anything I consider relevant.

Cheers,
K
