28<para>This package has a test suite available which performs a number of
29checks to ensure it will function correctly. It's worth noting that Gettext
30does not play a critical role in the overall operation of an LFS system. In
31addition, the Gettext test suite runs for quite a long period of time.
32Accordingly, the running of the test suite here is not crucial. Should you
33choose to run the Gettext test suite, the following command will do
34so:</para>
