Clearly I made a mistake. $VIRTUALX_DEPEND is only added to DEPEND when USE="test !minimal" So of course, invoking `virtx foo` when Xvfb isn't a dependency is gonna fail. >>> Test phase: dev-perl/Pango-1.227.0 * ERROR: dev-perl/Pango-1.227.0::gentoo failed (test phase): * (no error message) * * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 124: Called src_test * environment, line 969: Called virtx 'perl-module_src_test' * environment, line 996: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * XVFB=$(type -p Xvfb) || die; * * If you need support, post the output of `emerge --info '=dev-perl/Pango-1.227.0::gentoo'`, * the complete build log and the output of `emerge -pqv '=dev-perl/Pango-1.227.0::gentoo'`. * The complete build log is located at '/var/log/portage-build/build/dev-perl/Pango-1.227.0:20180728-040518.log'. * For convenience, a symlink to the build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/dev-perl/Pango-1.227.0/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/dev-perl/Pango-1.227.0/temp/environment'. * Working directory: '/var/tmp/portage/dev-perl/Pango-1.227.0/work/Pango-1.227' * S: '/var/tmp/portage/dev-perl/Pango-1.227.0/work/Pango-1.227'

Among these are Xvfb, which means virtx can't be imagined to work. This change avoids running live X11 tests with Xvfb in this condition. To avoid this resulting in a total degradation of testing-safety, a rudimentary "it compiles!" test has been inserted that ensures Pango.pm actually loads at all.

Looks like there's no reason any more to need this stable on HPPA, so closing.
