Running the testsuite for this package can cause problems.
|
|
It creates a number of dummy input devices on the currently
|
|
running system that can lead to crashing a local X server or
|
|
a desktop environment. If you understand the risks and have
|
|
the optional <xref linkend="check"/> and
|
|
<xref linkend="valgrind"/> packages installed, the regression
|
|
tests can be run as the <systemitem
|
|
class="username">root</systemitem> user with
|
|
<userinput>ninja test</userinput>. Note that depending on
|
|
the system configuration and hardware, some tests may fail.
