I'm able to ignore it, but the build process isn't. The build aborts after
the unsuccessful test. I've tried to skip the tests step in INSTALL.git by
removing "tools/bootcheck $parallel &&". But then the install afterwards
fails, because "stage2" isn't found. Creating this directory doesn't work
either. I've tried to remove tests/debugger/user_event_shallow*
but then I get the error "cannot read source file for module
`user_event_shallow'."

I'd like to disable the tests completely, as they take up quite some time.
My INSTALL.git looks like this:


...
parallel=-j16

./prepare.sh &&
./configure --enable-mm-grades \
            --disable-java-grade \
            --prefix=/usr/local/lib/mercury-git-2022-06-23 \
    2>&1 | tee /usr/local/sw/mercury/configure.log  &&
touch Mmake.params &&
touch Mercury.options &&
mmake depend &&
mmake MMAKEFLAGS=$parallel &&
tools/bootcheck $parallel &&
cd stage2 &&
mmake install MMAKEFLAGS=$parallel &&
true


Cheers,
Volker
