    22> I think that if the tests take too much time and become counterproductive, better is to place a "make -k" and, eventually, some comments. The most important objective is the package, not the tests?

    4 You are right Fernando, but in this case, what I have found is scarry: tests of the db2 database seem to fail. Since, as far as I understand (I plan to check that with upstream), this is the default database if  ldap is not installed, and Kerberos may be used in sensitive environments, I cannot keep that under the carpet. OTOH, maybe the tests are not relevant or wrong. I want to check first whether those tests are better with former versions, and to check with upstream that their failure is harmlesse. Otherwise, I think the package should be removed from the book, or at least that the user be informed.
