The last test passed is: gsettings 23 /gsettings/no-read-binding.

After that it hangs indefinitely.

Six of the earlier tests gave errors: contenttype, defaultvalue,

Hi Hazel,

Do you have D-Bus, desktop-file-utils, and shared-mime-info
installed? D-Bus and desktop-file-utils are needed for the test
suite, and one must install glib to install those. Because of that,
the test suite must be run after you have installed glib. Also, make
sure that you have the system-wide daemon running if you already have
D-Bus installed.

I didn't want to build dbus until I had the Xorg libraries in place as
recommended in the book. Is it the lack of dbus that makes it hang, do
you think? It certainly explains at least two of my six errors.

glib and desktop-file-utils are both installed, but not
shared-mime-info. That wasn't mentioned anywhere as a dependency.

I think I'll concentrate on X now until I have built the Xorg
libraries. Then I'll build dbus against them and try testing glib
again.

Remember that upstream developers generally build and test their packages against a full-up system. Getting all the dependencies for regression tests can be challenging.
