Hi,
I'm curious on what the intent of having the -k parameter in make -k check.
To this point in time I always thought it was to continue with the tests even
after unexpected test failures. But after removing the -k, the only error I
got early on was
autogen -T ../../fixincludes/check.tpl ../../fixincludes/inclhack.def
make[2]: autogen: Command not found
which caused an early halt.
With autogen installed, make check seemed to complete all the tests even though
not all of them were successful.
We do not give any recipe for autogen, so it is assumed that it is
not installed, hence the "-k", to prevent "make check" from failing
early.
