I tried packaging the tests too. But, the tests require the root user
and group to be present. The build environment does not have the root
user and group. So, the tests fail. Can anything be done about this? Or
should I abandon packaging the tests, and just mention this in the
comments somewhere?
I also tried running the tests in my own user environment, and they ran
fine.
