+<PRE>Thanks Guillame. I wasn't aware of this and did not manage to find that in
+the wiki. I thought the only tests performed where RPM lint checks, manual
+checks by the QA and some undefined checks by the maintainers.
+
+Anyhow, I assume the 'make test' is performed on the build server. Your
+experiences might prove me wrong, but wouldn't it be better to perform
+tests on a different installation?

+</I>&gt;<i> Running 'make check', or 'make test', or any other software test suite.
