Version: 1:8.35-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

If the tests fail on a buildd, as is currently happening (return of #751828),
detailed output is not given. This is a common issue with recent Automake,
and can easily be fixed by running the tests with VERBOSE=1.

See also https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=744380
in which I asked for this to be done by default in dh_auto_test
(but that wouldn't help pcre3, which doesn't use dh).
