See my post at
http://blog.flameeyes.eu/articles/2008/06/11/please-dont-build-your-examples-by-default
. It would be nice if gtkmm avoided building tests when the user has
FEATURES=-test.

By the way, the examples USE flag is useless, it builds examples and demos but
those _are not installed_, thus it only waste the users' time as the compiled
code is discarded right away. I'd suggest getting rid of the USE flag.

I know about the tests, cairomm is also affected by the same bug (see bug
#224187)

This is on my todo, I just need to get around to actually doing it :)

Hope you don't mind if I actually file bugs or these issues :) This way you are
reminded of them in your TODO, and I'm sure they won't be overlooked :)

Actually I hadn't noticed that gtkmm was affected too. So yeah, if you have
more nitpicks like this, keep filing bugs :)

I'll try to do another gnome-mm bug fixing spree Real Soon (tm)

Fixed in CVS with a minor caveat.

FEATURES=test will install 4 of the test programs' code into /usr/share/doc.
This bug has been fixed in trunk and gtkmm 2.13.x no longer has that issue.
Since it's only a few simple C++ files, it's not really bothering me.

If anyone really wants it fixed, I can backport the patch, but I just don't see
the point.

and for the record, this was the current behavior and nobody had noticed/cared
until now :P
