I was updating the smime series, and I decided to try it out. Build profiles seem
to work in Debian Stable. For me this is old enough, so unless convinced
otherwise, I'll gradually start using <!nocheck> for test suite only for
test suite only deps. As a seperate issue, the packaging needs to be
updated not to run the test suite when DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck.
