Hi,
just a half-baked idea, I'm carrying some time with me around.
Some packages have a check-section being executed during build. Would it
make sense to execute that test, when required packages of that package
get updated (to see, if the update breaks my package)?
(Or other way around: when

Hardly any %check section uses installed files. Typically, files in the

We encourage our packagers to implement useful check-sections.
To make an example,

(also due to the test data I've referred to above).
I'm asking if the scripts from

I wonder how different a run-time test-suite dffers from a test suite to

There are 2 major differences:
