Interesting, that also fixes the problem, but causes a new one... ********* Start testing of KDualActionTest ********* Config: Using QtTest library 5.7.0, Qt 5.7.0 (x86_64-little_endian-lp64 shared (dynamic) release build; by GCC 4.9.3) PASS : KDualActionTest::initTestCase() PASS : KDualActionTest::testSetGuiItem() FAIL! : KDualActionTest::testSetIconForStates() Compared pointers are not the same Actual (action.inactiveIcon()): (nil) Expected (icon) : 0x65a4d0 Loc: [/tmp/guix-build-kwidgetsaddons-5.24.0.drv-0/kwidgetsaddons-5.24.0/autotests/kdualactiontest.cpp(56)] PASS : KDualActionTest::testSetActive() PASS : KDualActionTest::testTrigger() PASS : KDualActionTest::cleanupTestCase() Totals: 5 passed, 1 failed, 0 skipped, 0 blacklisted, 3ms ********* Finished testing of KDualActionTest ********* > Starting an Xvfb server and then not stopping it again is kinda ... extreme. Since the tests are run in a container, I'd expect all processes started inside the container to receive a sigterm when the container is (shutdown?). > Also, who says that :1 is free? Again since the tests are run in a container, I'd expect that there isn't a xserver running unless I explicitly start it. Are my assumptions wrong? Do you think it's worth tracking down the test failure when my solution works?
