Package: autopkgtest
Version: 3.17.2
Severity: normal

Hi,

when running a command like:

adt-run --changes mypkg_1.0-1_amd64.changes --- schroot unstable-amd64-sbuild

on a .changes file which does not include a .dsc (as produced by
sbuild), then the only output is:

adt-run [17:13:35]: version @version@
adt-run [17:13:35]: host hoothoot; command line: /usr/bin/adt-run --changes mypkg_1.0-1_amd64.changes --- schroot unstable-amd64-sbuild
adt-run [17:13:42]: testbed dpkg architecture: amd64
adt-run [17:13:42]: testbed running kernel: Linux 4.0.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.0.5-1 (2015-06-16)

and then adt-run exits successfully.

This caused quite some head-scratching on my end because I expected the
autopkg tests to be run and did not know what was missing.

adt-run should print a warning or error if its input is not sufficient
to run the tests.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
