[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#873835: dbus: test-fdpass fails on hurd-i386: Segmentation fault

[Simon McVittie]

Source: dbus
Version: 1.11.16+really1.11.16-2
Severity: normal

(X-Debbugs-Cc to debian-hurd)

I recently enabled build-time tests for dbus, after fixing the home
directory issue that had previously meant they failed on all Debian
buildds. Unfortunately this led to a build failure on hurd-i386.
Because it's reasonably clear that nobody with an interest in Hurd
is currently contributing to dbus upstream, and the test results indicate
that dbus does basically work, I'm going to ignore the test failures on
!linux for the moment.

The bug I'm describing in this bug report manifests as a failure of
the test case test-fdpass:

> ../../../build-aux/tap-driver.sh: line 639: 11349 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) "$@"
