Texinfo 6.7 test hangs on i586-gnu (GNU/Hurd)
(address . bug-guix@gnu.org)
The ‘t/malformed-split.sh’ test of Texinfo 6.7 hangs on GNU/Hurd (in a
childhurd) as of commit 78f03567f44f704dfbc03cb64368aa42a01e78ad.
The test invokes its ‘pseudotty’ program, which creates a
pseudo-terminal using ‘posix openpt’. That call fails when not running
as root in a childhurd:
