Comment (by nejucomo):

 We chatted about next steps in a weekly dev chat just now.  I propose the
 next steps are:

 1. Review and merge https://github.com/tahoe-lafs/buildbot-config-
 tahoe/pulls
 1. Create a test runner framework in https://github.com/tahoe-lafs
 /packaging-tests
 1. Move the Tahoe ``./misc/build_helpers`` tests into ``packaging-tests``
 1. Swap in this new configuration into the existing build-bot network
 (-and carefully consider contingency downgrade)
 1. Verify that the new buildbot operation is functionally equivalent to
 the current operation
 1. Close this ticket as resolved

 After that, we can iterate on ``packaging-tests`` to try to nail down
 installation issues, using separate tickets.
