Bug Description

I'm trying to build some xorg-server packages for my PPA, but the build fails at some point of unit tests. The buildlog shows me that the build process hangs at the following point:

# Make sure Xvfb at least starts up
PATH=debian/tmp/main/usr/bin/:/bin:/usr/bin \
   debian/tmp/main/usr/bin/xvfb-run -s "-screen 0 1280x1024x24 -nolisten tcp -noreset" true

The process remains inactive for 2 hours, until it's killed by a watchdog daemon.

Have you retried the build? I suspect that was a random hang.

Yes, I've retried the build several times. In all of them, the build stops at the same point.

I will try another upload with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck set in debian/rules. As soon as I get a result, I'll comment it here.

Confirmed: xorg-server now builds successfully when I set DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck in debian/rules.

This appears to be a problem with the PPA builders. I have experienced this same bug; building locally on my own machine with pdebuild works just fine.
