The test suite should run on debuild

The package also ships DEP-8 tests, which mostly re-run the testsuite.

The network tests often rely on local certificatest that may have expires, sync them from upstream if necessary.

To run a single test file before building/installing a new version:

PYTHONPATH=Lib python3 Lib/test/test_xmlrpc.py

Some other distros repos: OpenSUSE.

Salsa issue: Salsa sets PYTHONIOENCODING: utf-8 (MR), you may need to unexport PYTHONIOENCODING before running tests in debian/rules and autopkgtests.
