--- Comment #4 from Sidney Markowitz <sid...@sidney.com> --- (In reply to Kevin A. McGrail from comment #1) > Just one note that I believe the root flag was added back when the tests > would possibly slam a production instance of something like spamd running on > the same system on the same port. I'm open to the argument that having to set the run_root_tests flag in config.dist or run using prove with a --override will be useful to ensure that someone does not unthinkingly run sudo make test TEST_FILES="t/root*.t" or even sudo make test on a production server. I personally wouldn't do it, but I'm not a sysadmin in a production environment, so what do I know? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
