Ivan,

My understanding is that unless you find an UNEXPECTED FAILURE in the report, 
or the process doesn't complete at all, you are clear to go forward.


OK is the best response for the test, SKIP means that the package wasn't 
configured to support the test at compile-time (optional dependancy, as an 
example), and EXPECTED FAILURE indicates a test failure in a situation that is 
known to the developers and may be considered acceptable.


You're welcome to look at the SKIPS to ensure you have all the optional 
dependencies that you need installed correctly, but I wouldn't spend too much 
time worrying about the results unless you have a true ERROR in the test output.


I believe that the process of "make check" doesn't adjust anything in the 
compiled source (based upon the results of the testing), the only potential 
products of the process are the various binaries/scripts that are created to 
perform the tests themselves.
