The package is libgnome-keyring 3.12.0-1 on GNU/Hurd. Hurd is more restrictive than GNU/Linux on mlock()/munlock(), so you have to be root for the tests: (This is the same problem as for kFreeBSD in #628383) egg/tests/test-secmem library/tests/test-memory The tests pass and the package builds fine with the two tests above run as root. Currently it is flagged as FTBFS due to this issue. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
