Thank you for the reply. That's pretty much what I figured.
FWIW, I do have the USER environment variable set., "USER=cchriste".
Trouble is, this condition occurs when running the test suite (make test) after
compiling from source. I'm assuming the test suite creates its own repo, so I,
as user/administrator have no influence over it, and no way to interact with it.
Looking at the merge5/m5.fossil repo, I see the users table has user, "drh", in
addition to the default user accounts. If I change the test command to:
USER=drh && make test
The merge5 tests complete successfully. So I'm good now as far as testing the
binary I built.
But this seems like a bug in the test suite where user, "drh", seems to be
hard-coded? I sure don't have user drh on my system :-))
In test/merge5.test, I see this code:
# Construct a test repository
#
exec sqlite3 m5.fossil <$testdir/${testfile}_repo.sql
fossil rebuild m5.fossil
...
merge5_repo.sql explicitly inserts user drh into the repo. And I don't see an
instruction in merge5.test where the current user is added to the repo.

It would be strange to have to write --user <username> here,
as it can be derived from the command-line already which
username is required....
