Hi Michael,

I do this in many of my packages (or a variation of this) to solve that
problem:

override_dh_install:
        python3 setup.py install --install-layout=deb \
		--root=$(CURDIR)/debian/tmp

ifeq (,$(findstring nocheck, $(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
        PYTHONPATH=$(CURDIR)/debian/tmp/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages \
		dh_auto_test
endif

	dh_install

override_dh_auto_test:
	echo "Do nothing..."

I hope this helps,
Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
