From d32aa995e021c49ed585329a3ed9b9ca0f4a2586 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Schmidt Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2016 15:36:01 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] tests: disable loading of the scim module as this can causes hangs of the tests With scim installed we can run into hangs of the test suite when the ecore_imf scim module tries to connect to the scim on the system. This has happened again and again on different installations and made the test suite really fragile. We would need to make sure that scim is configured on the host before we could run this test. It might be a candidate for skipped tests where we check if the env has all we need to run the test and if not skip it. We don not have all the needed pieces in place for this so the best we can do to make the test runs less fragile is disabling scim module loading for now. --- src/tests/ecore/ecore_test_ecore_imf.c | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/src/tests/ecore/ecore_test_ecore_imf.c b/src/tests/ecore/ecore_test_ecore_imf.c index f1ca87303c..486aa465b8 100644 --- a/src/tests/ecore/ecore_test_ecore_imf.c +++ b/src/tests/ecore/ecore_test_ecore_imf.c @@ -21,7 +21,10 @@ static const char *built_modules[] = { "ibus", #endif #ifdef BUILD_ECORE_IMF_SCIM - "scim", +/* The scim module needs some configuration on the host or it might just block + * the whole test suite when it tries to load the module.
