[buildd-tools-devel] Bug#833549: sbuild: autopkgtest fails when sbuild obtains the .dsc with apt-get source

[Sean Whitton]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.70.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear maintainer,

When sbuild obtains the .dsc to build from the archive with `apt-get
source`, autopkgtest fails.  It seems that sbuild is not passing the
.dsc to autopkgtest in this case.

For example, if I run

    $ sbuild y-u-no-validate

autopkgtest fails like this:

    autopkgtest
    -----------

    usage: autopkgtest [options] [testbinary ...] testsrc -- virt-server [options]
    autopkgtest: error: y-u-no-validate_2013052407-3.dsc is not a valid test package

    E: Autopkgtest run failed.

Thanks.
