Bug#895189: libwx-perl: autopkgtest failures due to xvfb-run

[Niko Tyni]

Package: libwx-perl
Version: 1:0.9932-3
Severity: important
User: debian-perl at lists.debian.org
Usertags: autopkgtest
Control: clone -1 -2
Control: reassign -2 pkg-perl-autopkgtest
Control: retitle -2 pkg-perl-autopkgtest: allow configurable xvfb-run invocation
Control: severity -2 wishlist
Control: block -1 with -2

The autopkgtest checks of this package regressed with 1:0.9932-3.

 https://ci.debian.net/packages/libw/libwx-perl/unstable/amd64/

This is because the pkg-perl-autopkgtest scripts run the test suite with
'xvfb-run' defaults, but this package now needs 16-bit colour depth,
as provided at build time by debian/rules:

  # xvfb-run defaults to 8-bit colour depth, which causes some tests to fail.
  override_dh_auto_test:
          xvfb-run -s '-screen 0 640x480x16' -a dh_auto_test --max-parallel=1

Unfortunately it's not currently possible to supply xvfb arguments in
pkg-perl-autopkgtest, so cloning a separate bug for that and blocking.
