Description: Test installed files (Closes: #872118).
 The test suite seems to check the executable bit on the local build product
 'mdadm' but runs all programs from the system PATH. This change should test
 the installed version.
 .
 I believe this change tests the installed version, but that hypothesis is not
 supported by much else. The autopkgtest restriction isolation-machine made it
 difficult so far to run the test suite anywhere.
 .
 The entire setup is untested and may require further modification in order to
 function.
 .
 Incorporates a suggestion from the fdisk maintainer to specify the fdisk
 prerequisite explicitly.
