    Описание: 
    Empty package only useful during its build: it installs (and checks) another pkg:
    apt-basic-checkinstall
    
    This package is only of interest for maintainers of the other package
    (being tested).
    
    So, whenever this package is rebuilt, the other package is installed
    and its %pre/%post scripts are run, whereby the tests (if any) from
    those scripts are executed. And this effect can be used to test
    the other package:
    
    * in a task in Girar by adding this package to the task (instead of
    relying on the automatic install checks of Girar, in case the Girar
    instance has the install checks turned off); the results can be seen
    in srpm.log then;
    * regularly in beehive (which rebuilds packages, but does no
    install checks).
    
    
    This package also makes its best to guess whether the environment
    where it is built looks like a Girar instance with install checks
    turned off and, if so, simulates obligatory install checks by adding a
    strict dependency on the release of the other package at the time of
    build. (So that when a new build of the other package is done in a task
    for this repository, there is an unmet dependency and the maintainer
    is forced to add a rebuild of this package to the task.)
    
    (Simulating an install check by means of a strict dep in a Girar
    instance with install checks turned on would be redundant and cause an
    unneeded excessive run of the tests in a single task and
    an extra burden for the maintainer.)
    
    Remark. The main idea of this package (to run tests during build)
    won't normally work (in the usual instances of Girar or
    beehive). The obstacle is that the other package whose scripts run
    tests is usually a *-checkinstall package; but normally the
    "checkinstall" component is not available for installation of the
    build dependencies. However, by lucky coincidence, the Girar
    instance that is of particular instance for us (i.e., the one that
    has install checks turned off, namely, e2k) also doesn't currently
    separate *-checkinstall packages into a repository component.
    
    (There is another case where this deficiency is even for the better:
    if one of the transitively required *-checkinstall packages
    already runs the tests during its build, then running them once
    again would be a redundant, excessive run of the tests, at least,
    in beehive. Example: rpminstall-checkinstall req'd by rpm-checkinstall.
    This isn't so much a concern in a Girar task, because
    rpminstall-checkinstall isn't usually built in the same task as rpm.)
