There is: environment variables for the smoke autopkgtests can be set via debian/tests/pkg-perl/smoke-env (since pkg-perl-autopkgtest version 0.26). Cf. https://pkg-perl.alioth.debian.org/autopkgtest.html#smoke (or /usr/share/doc/pkg-perl-autopkgtest/README.autopkgtest in pkg-perl-autopkgtest). > I would recommend reverting the environment variable to the previous sense. I'd rather leave the variable as is, as we (tried to) standardize on this version across lots of packages. I've now added the variable to debian/tests/pkg-perl/smoke-env for the next upload after the stretch release [0], and I'll add a TODO item to the Debian Perl Team's OpenTask page to review this situation for all affected packages.
