Some packages like libffi, gcc support extended, slower versions of their testsuites. In the past, I've seen both USE="expensive-tests" (I think) and USE="test-full" (used in a few places in-tree atm) for this. I sort of hate both suggestions but I'm open to what people think is best, with a view to then making it a global USE flag then? Thoughts? Note that I _do_ think there's value in exposing these because some of the configurations I use, and I know others are deploying Gentoo for, are where they want to make use of as many opportunities as possible to find bad runtime behaviour (kernel and toolchain patching). thanks, sam --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iOUEARYKAI0WIQQlpruI3Zt2TGtVQcJzhAn1IN+RkAUCZrY4b18UgAAAAAAuAChp c3N1ZXItZnByQG5vdGF0aW9ucy5vcGVucGdwLmZpZnRoaG9yc2VtYW4ubmV0MjVB NkJCODhERDlCNzY0QzZCNTU0MUMyNzM4NDA5RjUyMERGOTE5MA8cc2FtQGdlbnRv by5vcmcACgkQc4QJ9SDfkZBMRwD/dFJ3G+GFHMfNd6111S9fX9WHn5BGTn33omsJ JDOEgEUBAPOCJV5wts/gDSqzCawg4c3e4OiGHMygiUHfxa/XsesM =rPII -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
