I was going to reply, then I saw that the book had now been updated. But rather than leave the isuse dangling for someone else to come across later, I'll record what I found. I saw the same failures, and in my case they are caused by my .xinitrc. I had a comment in the changes file on this machine: # 2017-10-17 Add GIO_USE_TLS=gnutls-pkcs11 for browsers using glib-networking and then a straight export GIO_USE_TLS=gnutls-pkcs11 That seems to have come from https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=blfs-dev@lists.linuxfromscratch.org&q=subject:%22%5C%5Bblfs%5C-dev%5C%5D+Can%27t+browse+https+sites+with+WebKitGTK%5C-based+Epiphany%09or+Midori%22&o=newest&f=1 We used to mention it under glib-networking, although the text is commented. Google suggests that happened after BLFS-8.3, but clearly we didn't all notice that. Unsetting that before rerunning ninja test, all 270 tests are ok. ĸen -- I could not live without Champagne.
