# Test the package you're working on autopkgtest -B ../sane-backends_1.0.25-4.1+deb9u1_amd64.changes -- lxc autopkgtest-stretch-amd64 # Test the package in the archive (bug in this autopkgtest version / lxc virt-server: should be the same as above) autopkgtest -B -- lxc autopkgtest-stretch-amd64
Note: currently the test appears to be broken, cf. 968369.
