Upstream creates three little test binaries, that are used in the upstream testsuite. Since 3.2.8a-1 I place these test binaries in /usr/libexec/xfig on build to be able to use them in autopkgtest. This has the advantage, that autopkgtest uses test binaries that are build in the same environment as the xfig binary, which is more realistic than building these test binaries during autopkgtest, which may run in a different environment than the original build. So I do not run the testsuite here but only build and package the test binaries. > The proper behavior should be that "nocheck" disables the testsuite since > being able to disable the testsuite is necessary for being able to cross- > compile a package. No problem. But the above mentioned setup allows to run an autopkgtest on the destination architecture (without need of a compiler), since the test binaries are packaged. BTW: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/xfig/-/pipelines/280000 shows, that test-crossbuild-arm64 succeeded in the salsa pipeline :-) Greetings Roland
