x11/write test fails in abscence of $DISPLAY

[mi]

Quite often software is built in a batch or on a "headless" server, where DISPLAY is not defined. The self-tests should detect such situations and not fail. Unfortunately, that's not the case with 6.4.0-3:

Code: Select all

....
t/x11/read........ok                                                         
t/x11/write.......FAILED test 1                                              
        Failed 1/2 tests, 50.00% okay
t/zlib/read.......ok                                                         
t/zlib/write......ok

Please, advise. Thanks!

Hi! When my DISPLAY is set via an ssh client (to localhost:10), x11/write brings up the "CONGRATULATIONS! You can display an image" window, but the window does not go away... Not in the 8 seconds promised, not after an hour either...

I'm not sure, whether it works properly on a local display -- probably not...

Would you, please, look into that too? Thanks!
