There is no formal requirement that one should progressively fix bugs until 'make test' has 100% success. The tests merely reflect how someone else expected the code to behave. If you want it to behave in a different way, you should make up tests that check what's important to you, then make sure that 100% of those tests pass. On the other hand, you and other users of the software may benefit from it working more as intended, rather than less. Towards that goal, can the failing tests lead you to some idea of what needs to be changed? Some tests have comments that may be helpful. As to the installation issue, 'make install' should complain if something is going wrong, but maybe it's not noticing. Are there any clues in the output from 'make', 'make test', or 'make install'?
