What the RPM packaging does is run this (approximately):
pushd src/test/regress make all make MAX_CONNECTIONS=5 check
Something similar might be sufficient for QA on the Debian packaging
too. The overhead of the buildfarm makes sense if you want to rebuild
after every single commit. It may be overkill to go through that just
for testing .deb packaging, which realistically you're only going to
want to do after each point release.
