bug#52998: ell test suite failure (nondeterministic)

[Maxim Cournoyer]

Hello,

When built under a very loaded system, ell may fail its test suite
in a nondeterministic fashion like so:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
--- ./test-suite.log --------------------------------------------------------

================================
   ell 0.41: ./test-suite.log
================================

# TOTAL: 40
# PASS:  38
# SKIP:  0
# XFAIL: 0
# FAIL:  2
# XPASS: 0
# ERROR: 0

I've had this occur twice so far, always when the build machine is busy
building multiple things in parallel.

I suspect a dbus timeout or similar.

[Maxim Cournoyer]

Hello,

I've updated ell to 0.46 on the version-1.4.0 branch and haven't
encountered this failure since.

Tentatively closing.

Feel free to reopen it otherwise!

Thank you.

Maxim
