Re: [Bug-guile-ncurses] guile-ncurses failed tests on make check

[Mike Gran]

Hi,

Those errors are because the test suite doesn't do a good job with German, I 
think.

The tests that fail are expecting English names for keys and terminals.

I think that the library should work fine: it is the tests that are broken.  
I'll try to patch the tests soon.

Regards,

Mike

Hello,

Today I tried to get guile-ncurses running. At first I was missing a
library and I had to install it: sudo aptitude install libncursesw5-dev

Then ./configure ran without problem : )

Then I ran `make check`, with the following output:
https://gitlab.com/snippets/1794043/raw

At the bottom I see 4 tests failing and it tells me I should report it.
However, the last commit was long ago according to:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guile-ncurses.git .

Are those failing tests relevant for having a properly working
guile-ncurses library? Can I do anything like installing an additional
library or so to make them pass?

Thanks!
