Thanks! BTW, I fixed the "autopkgtest fails on trailing comma" issue
in autopkgtest 2.4.0, uploaded today.

For packages which don't make special demands on system services,
boot, etc. I often use the schroot runner. I have lots of schoots
anwyay (for sid, wheezy, various Ubuntu releases etc.) and that's very
fast. So in the package build dir you can run

  adt-run --no-built-binaries ./ --- adt-virt-schroot sid

For most other bits I use the "run-adt-test" wrappper [1] which runs
the test in a complete VM. That's not quite applicable to Debian at
the moment though, as the corresponding "prepare-testbed" script
doesn't have Debian cloud images to base on. I didn't yet investigate
how it could be adapted to Debian. But for this package in particular,
a schroot is just fine.
