I think the idea itself is good but the realisation has some flaws.
I've commited some code implementing the idea to Git but it seems we
need to exclude lots of those examples as you can see for instance here
in the Salsa CI

   https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/dipy/-/jobs/2285615

May be running the build-time nosetest is the easier approach to an
autopkgtest.

Kind regards

      Andreas.
