Thanks a lot. I would have never guessed that.

Meanwhile, I found the following alternative approach in the README.rst [1]:

        dh_auto_test -- --system=custom --test-args='{interpreter} setup.py 
test'

Your suggestion looks cleaner. If it works, I'll use it. If not, I'll stick to 
the
approach above as it actually works. Took me forever to figure this all out.

I think this information could be added to the Pybuild page on the Debian wiki 
[2].

Sounds a great idea; please feel free to edit the page to include
this!

sorry, but this feels like a bullshit comment. pun intended.

the pybuild information really is not adequate. but requesting people having questions to just add another tiny improvement to this kind of documentation is not helping very much. So maybe the people already knowing all the quirks could come up with a way to rewrite the docs?

We even could have that as the first topic for a Python BoF, before starting any other topic ...
