Description Stephan Bergmann 2008-12-08 15:29:35 UTC 
It quite often happens to me that building smoketestoo_native fails with error
messages like

error: writer: swriter Paste Object -> error
error: impress: simpress Paste Object -> error
error: draw: sdraw Paste Object -> error

I assume that the smoketest does a copy to and then paste from the (system wide)
clipboard, while the clipboard contents can be altered in the meantime by an
unrelated process.  (For Linux and Solaris, I use a virtual X server to avoid
interactions between building smoketestoo_native and simultaneously using the
system for something else.  The problem hits me when I build smoketestoo_native
on Windows via an rdesktop application from Unix, where the rdesktop application
apparently synchronizes the Windows clipboard with the Unix one.)  It would be
nice if building smoketestoo_native would depend as little as possible on the
execution environment (i.e., if clipboard testing was taken out).

The clipboardtest is an essential test of the smoketest. The smoketest does a
copy to and then paste from the system wide clipboard during the test. This test
should not be disabled. But maybe it is an option for you to disable the
clipboard sharing on your rdesktop (-r clipboard:no).
