Hi Raghav, I've found the reason for the test failure by using this patch: --- libgovirt-0.3.6/tests/mock-httpd.c.orig 2020-01-13 16:54:08.578009738 +0100 +++ libgovirt-0.3.6/tests/mock-httpd.c 2020-01-13 16:54:58.442238829 +0100 @@ -114,6 +114,9 @@ cert = g_tls_certificate_new_from_files (abs_srcdir "/https-cert/server-cert.pem", abs_srcdir "/https-cert/server-key.pem", &error); + if (error != NULL) { + fprintf(stderr, "ERROR: %s\n", error->message); + } g_assert (error == NULL); server = soup_server_new (SOUP_SERVER_SERVER_HEADER, "simple-soup-httpd ", SOUP_SERVER_TLS_CERTIFICATE, cert, Then I fixed the test failure by adding glib-networking (which is a GIO plugin). I suspect that the tests won't work reliably because of the networking involved (even when local)--but let's cross that bridge when we come to it. Committed to guix master as commit 3f1ed953e8a596dc3a4924758a931b8a774bde5f.
