Bug#898497: gsettings-qt: Please increase timeout of tests
Source: gsettings-qt
Version: 0.1+17.10.20170824-3
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
User: debian-riscv@lists.debian.org

Hi,
This program fails to build in riscv64 due to timeout of the tests.
Admittedly this is a problem specially in this architecture due to having
buildds using qemu-system at the moment. However, it's not the only one with
buildds running in qemu (although the others use qemu-user, AFAIK), or with slow
hardware or potentially with systems under load for any reason.
The fact that the buildds are slow by itself shouldn't be a reason to fail
tests, and 1 millisecond seems a bit tight to me.
So I propose to increase the timeout in line 28 of "tests/cpptest.cpp",
"QVERIFY(spy.wait(1));", from 1 millisecond to 1000 (1 second), or at least 100.

I am not sure if upstream is active and you want me to contact them, or if you
would be happy to apply the patch, or refuse, or prefer some other way.
Please tell to know if and how we can proceed.
Thanks and cheers.
