You are right, it was not present on my workstation.  We should not run
a test if the environment isn't properly set up, I'd say.

I'd say, in this case KDE isn't to be blamed.  On SuSE Linux I changed
the XML catalog handling to avoid update problems; now all catalogs will
be listed in /etc/xml/suse-catalog.xml and I'll address this catalog
using a nextCatalog statement in /etc/xml/catalog; this indirection is
necessary because 'xmlcatalog' is pretty aggressive concerning
normalization of /etc/xml/catalog .

Yes, but you must not run a test, if the environement lacks a
prerequisit.

Anyway, things a looking much better now; I hope we can improve the
testsuite next time.
