As you can see the koffice testsuite wants to connect to the X-server which it isn't allowed to. I suggest one of the following: - Check in src_test if there is one x-server the user is allowed to connect to when the testsuite requires a running x-server. - Remove tests that require a running x-server.

(In reply to comment #2) > Using 1.6.1 I get another failure, when FEATURES="test" is enabled: My apologies, that's for app-office/koffice-libs-1.6.1. Please let me know if you want a different bug entry for that.
I think I disabled all of the breaking tests for 1.6.x. If there should still be issues, open a new bug, please. Regarding fixing the tests: Take it upstream please. Tests failing because of not being able to connect to X are a different issue: Of course you can't when you build with userpriv in FEATURES and not giving unauthorized X access (e.g. `xhost local:`). As far as I've tested, these tests succeed under the right conditions.
