Bug#798066: Multiarch-renamed python extensions not found during autopkgtest testing

Hi, debian-python,

For Debian Med's python packages that have compiled extensions, I
noticed that test suites run via autopkgtest fail because the package
cannot find those extensions, as they've been renamed with the multiarch
triplet.

It seems to only be a problem with autopkgtest because I have in one
case manually installed such a package and successfully ran its test
suite. I therefore reported #798066 [1] against autopkgtest, but quite
some time has elapsed since then and I'd like to get this resolved.

Does anyone know why this might be the case? Autopkgtest for these
packages is currently not very helpful because there are many spurious
failures due to this issue. There are more details in my original bug
report [1].

Many thanks and regards
Afif
