Yep. I'll post an updated patch that does that. >>> the all that is supposed to happen is that tests which call >>> _require_scratch() should not run.

But when the end result for a missing value is rm -rf /*, I don't think it's overkill. A mkfs with a missing value isn't going to accidentally mkfs everything. -Jeff -- Jeff Mahoney SUSE Labs
