[Bug 1333672] [NEW] Tests fail and do not fail the package build

[Robie Basak]

Public bug reported:

pycurl is in main, so is expected to meet
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMainInclusionRequirements, including "If
the package ships a test suite, and there is no obvious reason why it
cannot work during build (e. g. it needs root privileges or network
access), it should be run during package build, and a failing test suite
should fail the build."

pycurl currently (7.19.3-0ubuntu3) does have a test suite that does run
during the build, but the test suite fails and this does not fail the
build.

pycurl now depends on python-bottle, which is in universe, but it could
still have a dep8 test that runs this test suite. However, even with
python-bottle installed, not all tests pass.

That's as far as I got during a pycurl merge, so I'll leave this bug
here for another time.
