14<para>This package has a test suite available which can perform a number of
15checks to ensure it built correctly. However, the Gettext test suite here in
16Chapter 5 is known to experience failures under certain host conditions -- for
17example, if it finds a Java compiler on the host. The Gettext test suite takes
18a very long time to run and is not considered critical. Therefore, we don't
19recommend running it here. Should you choose to run it, the following command
20will do so:</para>
