This is mostly useful on source based distributions (specifically, this patch comes from Gentoo). While in general running tests everywhere would be great, source distro users may not have the cpu time to compile/run tests. Also, some test suites don't work and users may not care to figure out why (for instance, last time I tried enabling tests in Gentoo, binutils failed its suite). For binary distriubtions, I agree they should be running tests (especially since we work to keep them green). But source based distros aren't so clear cut. - Matthew ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
