Does %check install the package and run the tests as root? For the keyutils
package that I maintain, this would be a requirement to be able to run the
testsuite because:
(1) There are certain operations that cannot be tested if you're not root.
(2) The kernel must be able to upcall to executables installed by the rpm.
I imagine this applies to some other packages also.
I does, but not sure to how many. %check is executed during rpmbuild time right
after %build so limitations apply.
