Subject: [gentoo-dev] testing during emerge?
Date: Thu, 10 Apr 2003 20:33:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030410203310.4f275556.pfein@pobox.com> (raw)

Sorry if this has been covered before...

So I recently got hit by the gcc/pentium4 bug, as described here:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=43373

Why this was particularly annoying is that Python (and lots of other progs) include test suites which can catch these sort of things.  While this is a non-issue for binary distros, being able to run a test suite ("make test" or whatever) as part of an emerge would be pretty useful.  My ebuild experience is somewhat limited (though it doesn't look that hard) though I've done a good bit of work in Python.  I'd be willing to help out on such a project, if there's interest.
