 #. Now we'll try expanding this tarball and running the test suite
    to check for packaging problems::
 
-     make check-dist-tarball
+     make check-dist-tarball | subunit2pyunit

-   decide if you can release with these failures. When in doubt,
-   disable the faulty plugins one by one until you get no more
-   failures.
