Hi Christian, hi Raphaël!

With python-django 1.9-2 I get those tags:
I: python-django source: runtime-test-file-is-not-a-regular-file
debian/tests/django-admin-py3
I: python-django source: runtime-test-file-is-not-a-regular-file
debian/tests/test-suite-py3
Both files are symlinks to another script (which is a regular file) in
the same directory. autopkgtest works perfectly well with such test
files... thus you should not trigger the tag in this case.
I suspect this is a relic from the times before we had an API to check
if a file is safe to open (is_open_ok).
Relative symbolic links to autopkgtest tests should be allowed as long
as they point to regular files. This adds the following tags for
identifying problematic types of symlinks:
- runtime-test-file-is-absolute-symlink
- runtime-test-file-is-self-recursive-symlink
- runtime-test-file-is-broken-symlink
- runtime-test-file-is-symlink-to-non-regular-file
I don't think we need separate tags for every kind of brokenness.
One tag should be enough.
