[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#793885: minc: FTBFS with netcdf in experimental due to test failure

[Bas Couwenberg]

Package: minc
Version: 2.2.00-6
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: debian-gis at lists.debian.org

Dear Maintainer,

Your package FTBFS with the new netcdf packages in experimental due to a
test failure:

 FAIL: testminctools.sh
 ==============================================
    minc 2.2.00: libsrc2/test/test-suite.log
 ==============================================

 # TOTAL: 17
 # PASS:  16
 # SKIP:  0
 # XFAIL: 0
 # FAIL:  1
 # XPASS: 0
 # ERROR: 0

 .. contents:: :depth: 2

 FAIL: testminctools.sh
 ======================

 Converted file to MINC2.0 format.
 ncvarid: ncid 65536: NetCDF: Variable not found
 Version: 1 (netCDF)
 FAIL testminctools.sh (exit status: 3)


The attached patch enables verbose test output in the build log and ignores
any test failures to allow the build to succeed.

Can you explain the test failure, and perhaps help resolve it?

I'd rather fix the issue than ignore the test failure, but I'm too
unfamiliar with the minc package.

Kind Regards,

Bas
