I don't doubt. But you cannot expect that everybody uses "the number one
recommended pylsp installation method".

No, "we" (as the Emacs community) have a problem. Everybody who has
installed the Debian pylsp package, and who runs Emacs' "make check",
will see the errors. And these are not counted as pylsp errors, or
eglot.el errors; they are counted as Emacs errors. We shouldn't show
such a bad performance.
If Debian's pylsp does not cooperate, add a check in eglot-tests.el that
it is skipped.
Testing Debian and/or Emba is pretty easy now. I have just pushed a
patch to master, extending the file admin/notes/emba. There is a new
section "Running Emba tests locally", which you could apply. Use the
build target emcs-eglot instead of emacs-inotify, and run finally "make
-C test eglot-tests", and you'll see what's up.

A priority is that the tests shouldn't fail. That's for all us
developers.

See above. A simple "make check" could already fail, with an improper
pylsp installed.

Again, I'm not speaking about eglot users. They shall know what to
do. But eglot-tests could fail for everybody who has installed a pylsp
package, for example from Debian, w/o even being interested in eglot.

See above. With the instructions I have added to admin/notes/emba, it
should be simple.
