Subject: [gentoo-dev] [PATCH 0/1] ecm.eclass: set KDE_DEBUG=1 for ecm_src_test
Date: Wed, 20 Oct 2021 08:56:50
Message-Id: 20211020084052.3457148-1-telans@posteo.de
1 As part of transitioning to using Clang as my system compiler, I have been running tests on most
2 packages to determine if they still properly function. However, this has introduced a problem where
3 some KDE package tests segfault.
4 Unfortunately, this launches DrKonqi in the virtx display to display a backtrace.
5
6 This results in the test phase hanging as DrKonqi is presumably waiting for user input.
7 See below for an instance of a test phase hanging as seen through `top -b -c -n 1 -u portage`:

21 As far as I can tell, without sending SIGKILL to the test being traced (addtoarchivetest in this instance), the test phase never exits.
22
23 KDE provides a variable, KDE_DEBUG [1], which when set disables the DrKonqi crash handler.
24 Using this results in the tests segfaulting and the test phase simply failing, rather than hanging.
25
26 Most of the crashing tests are a result of kde-frameworks/kjs being built with Clang.
27 I have opened a bug report about this on bugs.kde.org [2].
28
29 Hopefully this is an acceptable solution. I have submitted a corresponding GitHub PR [3].
