Bug#759413: r-cran-learnbayes: Fail of tests in debci (autopkgtest)

[Andreas Tille]

Hi Lucas,

I just tried to do this right now installed debci went to its README and
tried

$ adt-run --user debci --output-dir /tmp/output-dir r-cran-learnbayes_2.15-2_amd64.changes schroot debci-unstable-amd64
usage: adt-run [options] action [action ...] --- virt-server [options]
adt-run: error: You must specify --- <virt-server>...


I noticed that adt-run needs "adt-virt-schroot or adt-virt-qemu"
as virt-server and I wonder what else I need to setup.

Anyway since I simply can run the test suite from command line which is
just plain shell script and works perfectly for all other r-cran-*
packages that way I can not really believe that this should be the
source of the problem.  Can you please confirm that the tr command is
exactly doing what you suggested in you patch?  I do not really insist
on sticking to the unique scheme for all r-cran-* packages but I simply
wonder in turn whether something might be wrong with your testing
environment.

Kind regards and thanks for caring about autopkgtest

      Andreas.
