--- Comment #12 from Haïkel Guémar <karlthered@xxxxxxxxx> ---
According guidelines:
"If the source code of the package provides a test suite, it *should* be
executed in the %check section, whenever it is *practical* to do so."

First, enabling tests is not mandatory, it's strongly advised to execute them.
Then, the guideline insists on the fact it is practical to do so, so it's up
to the packager or the reviewer judgement.

Since, the execution of the tests suite takes up to 20 minutes, i personnally
consider this to be a legit argument no to enable them.
My personal choice would have been to enable them by default, and allowing 
people to quickly rebuild it if requires.
As a reviewer, i can only make suggestions to the packager on that point:
"consider using a build conditional so one could easily enable or better
disable test suite execution".

My duty as a reviewer is not to enforce my POV, just the guidelines and ensure
high quality packaging and that's the case here.

That's why i approved this package, and i trust my fellow packager to do the
right choice on that matter.
