Debian Medical Team,
I have started looking at adding autopkgtest suites for a variety of packages.
Two of the packages (hinge, pique) require very large data sets to run their
included examples. The sizes are several GB. It also looks like they may be
graphical in nature.
Is it permissible for autopkgtest suites to download such large amounts of data
from the internet? Or should they be included in the repo?
If so, I am happy to continue to look at these packages to include some basic
level of testing.
Thank you!
As I don't have direct domain knowledge of the technology

Hi, Lance.
I'm the author of PIQUE and I included a "test" folder with a Makefile
in it that downloads an example dataset. The data is not in the repo.
HTH,
Tony.
