g_test_skip() is since 2.38 (and can't be added in compat, because it uses internal variable etc) Furthermore, the shm error is a precondition for all the tests, it doesn't fit well with g_test_skip() which is inside the individual unit tests. > [*] Incidentally this whole saga demonstrates why my general > recommendation is to keep pull requests at much less than > 50 patches... > >> I rebased and updated the tag. > > If you mean by this "please retry the pull" you should send a fresh > coverletter email so my scripts will pick it up... ok -- Marc-André Lureau
