Hello.
While packaging PPL for Gentoo I found that our package manager kept skipping running the testsuite. Basically, to determine if a package has a testsuite it first runs make in dry-run mode:
+ make -j1 check -n + make -j1 test -n
..and if successful it goes ahead and runs the tests.
After a bit of poking, I discovered that the problem is that running `make check -n` in PPL fails with an error:
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `../../tests/libppl_tests.a', needed by `addcongruences1'. Stop.
Regular `make check` works fine of course, as does `make check -n` after `make check`.
Full log attached. Please CC me on replies.
