Tried again with USE="test" and it still does not work. USE flags for the package are: USE="java tcl test -bootstrap -doc -nocxx" so all bindings are built, but it still does not work. Any ideas?
Strange, it all seems to be about some "handles" symbol that is not recognized.
Ok; some investigation shows that actually almost every test fails. As an example, env002 fails which is the second subtest that runs (lots of stuff afterwards fails for the same reason): # tclsh % source ../test/test.tcl % eval env002 ... bad option "-log": must be... After rummaging through the code, I discovered that the tcl interface for db only supports the "-log" option if built with CONFIG_TEST. Looking at db_config.h, CONFIG_TEST is described as needing to be set to 1 to build db suitable for the test suite. Following back to configure, there's an '--enable-test' feature which needs to be set in order to build for testing. Adding 'myconf=${myconf} $(use-enable test)" to src_compile() sorts this out. However I'm guessing that the package should be installed without all the extra test stuff included with --enable-test. This would mean re-running src_compile() with --disable-test after the tests have completed. For example, this could be done by renaming src_compile to do_src_compile, and having: do_src_compile() { ... [[ $1 != "notest" ]] && myconf="${myconf} $(use_enable test)" ... } src_compile() { do_src_compile } src_test() { db_src_test do_src_compile notest } Another possibility, since the tests are so long, is to provide the tests via a separate ebuild, sys-libs/db-test which would build and run the tests but not install anything, and RESTRICT=test in sys-libs/db. This makes it easy to have just the non-test version installed normally (and via deps), and allow people who want to run the test to do so by emergeing sys-libs/db-test. BTW I note db_src_test in db.eclass checks for test in FEATURES - surely this isn't necessary?

Newer versions use 'has test $FEATURES'. Upstream's record of test passes is very low, even the latest 4.7 failed a couple of tests.
