I see this: WARN: test The test suite shows errors when there is an older version of dev-vcs/subversion installed. ERROR: test ERROR: dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.9::gentoo failed (test phase): Make check failed. See above for details. Call stack: ebuild.sh, line 93: Called src_test environment, line 7410: Called default phase-functions.sh, line 796: Called __eapi2_src_test phase-functions.sh, line 789: Called __eapi0_src_test phase-helpers.sh, line 672: Called die The specific snippet of code: $emake_cmd ${internal_opts} check || \ die "Make check failed. See above for details." If you need support, post the output of `emerge --info '=dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.9::gentoo'`, the complete build log and the output of `emerge -pqv '=dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.9::gentoo'`. The complete build log is located at '/var/log/portage/build/dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.9:20140702-085625.log'. For convenience, a symlink to the build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.9/temp/build.log'. The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.9/temp/environment'. Working directory: '/var/tmp/portage/dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.9/work/subversion-1.8.9' S: '/var/tmp/portage/dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.9/work/subversion-1.8.9' Since tests will fail anyway, wouldn't be better to skip tests when a previous version is installed to not need to wait for them to test? I would also show the warning at pkg_pretend phase to allow people to uninstall previous version to run the tests Thanks
What errors?
