Re: [pdf-devel] Selective unit testing

'make check' is failing due to undefined reference to `srunner_run'. I
tried flipping the HAVE_NOCHECK define in config.h with no joy. I also
tried adding srunner_run to check.h/check.c (with srunner_run simply
calling the existing srunner_run_all) - no joy.

I did not find instructions for 'make check all' in Section 8.2.5,
"'Running the unit tests" of the guide [1]. Would you be able to
provide the switch I should be using?

For completeness, this is about all I do after I pull a revision:
make clean
./bootstrap
./configure CFLAGS=-g CFLAGS=-ggdb --prefix=/usr
make check
[optional 'make install' to debug]
