Do you really think 1 email a day would be a bother? For me it would not, but I understand that this is subjective. > In contrary, it will show us pretty soon if a commit broke anything. +1 I think the important thing is to note that the tests are only valid for an up-to-date TL system. If the texlive packages are used from the Ubuntu repos and no update is done, then I am sure there would be failures. A tlmgr update needs to be run, e.g. every week. In fact, every week or so I would recommend: 1. run the ctests 2. update with tlmgr 3. run the ctests again That way we could see exactly which tests fail due to the tlmgr update. Scott
