- added missed gir deps of packages split recently and future. see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1059678 for details. thanks to @smcv
- installed tests package and full autopkgtest
This is used internally by imports.package (modules/script/package.js), and is likely to need to be separated from gir1.2-glib-2.0 during the GLib 2.79/2.80 cycle. At the moment, it is a virtual package provided by the gir1.2-glib-2.0 package.
imports.package depends on GLib, GObject and Gio, not just GIRepository. In practice gir1.2-girepository-2.0 (or the package that provides it) will pull in all of those, so this is really just for completeness.
This add package of installed tests, useful to do more tests also out of build Full autopkgtest help to spot regression also when depends are updated, for example used in debian CI: https://ci.debian.net/packages/c/cjs/unstable/amd64/ Both installed tests and autopkgtest can be used also manually by users and developers

Why do we need the test package? |
|
Mint (as opposed to Debian and Ubuntu) FWIK for now don't an automatic system that tests for possible regressions both when modifying the software and other basic dependent software, but could still be used by some users (mainly developer) that want to use it, and be useful for possible improvements. Being a separate package not included in dependencies, it is not installed by default so it does not change for the normal user |

First 3 commits merged. |
