I cannot determine the exact cause why it fails on big-endian emulation. Also, trying to load any GUI through the emulator just results in a blank window, so I cannot even check if the resulting binary is all right (false-positive). My best guess is that Qt uses OpenGL to accelerate drawing, which cannot be emulated correctly, meaning this could be a test failure without anything being wrong. As a temporary workaround, I have disabled unittests on big-endian hardware in v1.15-1 (to be uploaded today), until someone with access to a hardware machine with X11 can help in checking the exact situation. [help needed] If you have a big-endian machine with X11 running, please try executing the software and check if the resulting UI looks okay or the colors are messed up -- seeing as how blue was always 0xFF, all output should look blue-tainted if the test suite diagnosed a problem correctly. If you want to donate some time to this, you can re-activate the unittests by appending -DRunUnitTestsOnBigEndian=ON to the dh_auto_configure call in d/rules. - Danny
