I tried to grok what was going on but I also hit the Perl knowledge wall. I did find the code [1] where the 'qemu' shortname should have been converted to 'autopkgtest-virt-qemu', resp. same thing for all the other backends. Suspicion: could it be that the changes of 2dcaaca2 or 7e4c1404 no longer trigger the above code path at the right time?
