The test suite for libical-2.0.0 fails for me the test icalrecurtest-r (nearly reproducibly). Sometimes it succeeds but most of the time it fails with a mismatch of the output to a reference output. From Testing/Temporary/LastTest.log: <pre> CMake Error at /var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libical-2.0.0-r2/work/libical-2.0.0/cmake/run_test.cmake:38 (message): Output does not match for /var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libical-2.0.0-r2/work/libical-2.0.0/src/test/icalrecur_withicu_dangi_test.out and /var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libical-2.0.0-r2/work/libical-2.0.0_build/bin/test.out: Files "/var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libical-2.0.0-r2/work/libical-2.0.0/src/test/icalrecur_withicu_dangi_test.out" to "/var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libical-2.0.0-r2/work/libical-2.0.0_build/bin/test.out" are different. </pre> Indeed if I check bin/test.out, then it's not identical to src/test/icalrecur_withicu_dangi_test.out but to src/test/icalrecur_test.out. I did some investigation and found that the tests icalrecurtest and icalrecurtest-r write their output to the same file ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}bin/test.out (see src/test/CMakeLists.txt). If they are run in parallel, icalrecurtest-r fails complaining in .../libical-2.0.0_build/Testing/Temporary/LastTest.log that the reference file src/test/icalrecur_withicu_dangi_test.out does not match the output bin/test.out. If I run the merge with MAKEOPTS="-j1", then the test never failed so far. I suggest running the test suite with "-j1" instead as it is already done in libical-1.0.1 and libical-3.0.1: src_test() { local myctestargs=( -j1 ) cmake-utils_src_test } Note: This is not related to #532296.
