Re: [Inkscape-devel] inkscape root dir tidying thoughts

I'm not sure, but gtest *should* only be required at the point of invoking "make check". I.e., it should be possible to build and install Inkscape on a user system without having a test suite available.

Once that's in place, we can simply disable the auto_test macro in the PPA, so it'll happily build without testing. This shouldn't be a problem as we now run Ubuntu tests independently in our CI config.

Is gtest required for building or is it just a testing patch?
