Thanks, I'll take a look at it and follow it when it comes to mass filing of 
bugs.

A better case here would be to find a way to identify those packages
whose upstreams have tests that are not being run in %check. That
probably *would* be considered a bug.

Unless there's a decree from FESCo or FPC about requiring this, it's
going to be up to the maintainer as to whether using %check to run
testsuites is required.  A lot of testsuites require external network
access and won't work when run under koji.  Also, it increases build
time and can bloat BuildRequires.  It is *not* a clear-cut bug.


I agree with Josh on this one, however many packages simply forget about %check. I will find packages which have test suites but not execute them in %check and file bugs as a separate action. However the difference between having tests and not executing them in %check is very small (<5%).
