They don=E2=80=99t run the tests.  :-)

However, the real server is passed:

  "-xkbdir" "${pkgs.xkeyboard_config}/etc/X11/xkb"

(See <https://github.com/NixOS/nixos/blob/master/modules/services/x11/xserv=
er.nix>.)

But here, for tests/xtest.c there=E2=80=99s no server running apparently.

Looking at configure.ac, I think you have to do just that.  Then you can
check the value of XKB_BASE_DIRECTORY in config.log, to make sure
everything=E2=80=99s right.

Can you then run test/xtest in strace and check where it=E2=80=99s looking =
for
XKB files?

TIA,
