After
git checkout master && git pull
"make check" fails in gnulib on my OpenSuSE 11.4 system
because cppi is not installed:

... nor can it be found in any standard OpenSuSE standard repositories ;-/
cnf cppi
Is it intended to include gnulib checks in coreutil's "make check"?
And if yes, shouldn't coreutils check for cppi availability?
