Okay, I've prepared an upload to experimental instead: git://anonscm.debian.org/collab-maint/deb-python-testtools.git I'll upload it there if it's fine for you. Changelog entry: python-testtools (2.2.0-1.1) experimental; urgency=medium * Non-maintainer upload * New upstream release (Closes: #843037) * Fix debian/watch to match the new upstream tagging scheme (in place since 0.9.23) * Re-enable running unit tests at build time, since they are fixed * Drop fix-test-run.py.patch * Add build dependency on testscenarios * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.8 -- Free Ekanayaka <fr...@debian.org> Sat, 12 Nov 2016 13:27:12 +0000
