Thanks. I did not know it was already there, i had a private
conversation with the Slackware maintainer who reported test
errors; it seems readonly files can be written to on Slackware. :)
The "real" slackware-current Maintainer did a package with the test
commented out.
My user-repository(SBo) package for the stable slackware(14.2) isn't
updated, because
i wanted to check for the failed tests.
It seems the cause is, that on slackware the packages are typically
build as root user.
When i build as unpriviledged "make test" returns:
600 tests: 600 ok, 0 failure(s). 3 test(s) skipped
Readonly files can be overwritten by the root user, not only on
slackware.
