It should be DEB_PYTHON_MODULE_PACKAGES (not DEB_PYTHON_PACKAGES)I see now that morituri has it wrong too, but accidently works anyway there, sorry about the confusion :-/
At the end of the building process, it runs the unit tests, and it fails, since it doesn't have the path to the private Python packages in its PYTHONPATH:
It seems like this is built in the ../build-area/scenic-0.5.11/build/2.5/py and ../build-area/scenic-0.5.11/build/2.6/py directories. Maybe I can skip the unit tests? Maybe I can override the check target, adding these directories to the PYTHONPATH environment variable?
Try extend the PYTHONPATH in the check target. Best to use make variable expansion using some of the variables calculated in /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/python-vars.mk.
If that fails to work then disable tests for now. I find it better to properly use python-autotools.mk than running the tests. But beware that since you know that the packaging should fail to build on certain architectures, then if for some reason some of those known failures only are discovered in the regression tests (as opposed to missing build-dependencies which is the more likely to happen) then the trick of not declaring specific supported archs but just rely on "never succesfully built before on that arch" will fail if postponing regression tests for later.
