I realise that I may have come across as quite negative.  Apologies if
that is the case - it was not my intention.  I think the
autopkgtest-pkg-pybuild/pybuild-autodep8 work is very helpful and a
positive addition to our infrastructure, and I'm very grateful to
those who've made it happen.

My only concern is with how it is introduced; because of the wide
variety of Python packages and the hugely varying nature of the
testsuites present in them (or not), I think that trying to force this
into packages is a poor idea.  (I wish that most of my packages could
simply use this pybuild-autodep8 tool.  I fear that this won't be the
case, but I will certainly adopt it for those which can.)

Best wishes,

   Julian
