John The source level (development) test suites will always be available. We are however preparing what we term binary certification tests, for formal LSB certification purposes.
In conversations with the team, perhaps a warning rather than an error might be wisest for the binary rpm package of the LSB runtime test suite (for example if it cannot find the LSB dynamic linker), although there is a counter argument that says we should not allow our certification test suite to even install if the required dependencies in the system are not met, since otherwise how would we be able to tell that the system under test and the journal sent in, is not in fact from a system not providing the required dependencies. The good news is that other parts of the certification process will require rpm packages to be installed that do test for the dependency. regards Andrew On Mar 19, 12:20pm in "RE: Request binary b", Porter, John (Contractor) wrote: > Yes; even so, there must be some utility in testing a non-LSB > system, right?
