[Pkg-octave-devel] First try on autopkgtest for OF packages

[Rafael Laboissière]

I have designed a very simple way of adding autopkgtest functionality 
to the OF packages.  You can try it with the following commands:

    sudo aptitude install octave-image
    gbp clone https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-octave/octave-image.git
    cd octave-image
    git checkout autopkgtest
    autopkgtest -B . -- null

Notice that you will need octave-pkg-dev >= 1.4.6 (now in unstable) for 
that to work.

This is implemented through the d/tests/control file:

 #####################################
 Tests: unit-tests
 Depends: @, octave-pkg-dev (>= 1.4.6)
 #####################################

and the d/tests/unit-tests file:

 #####################################
 #!/bin/sh
 exec 2>&1
 set -e
 debian/rules check-pkg
 #####################################

Tell me what you think, please.
