nd the quickdump issue is purely a user rights issue not a bug,

It is a violation of FHS, applications are not supposed to write to /usr, it even might be read-only.

For writing we should only use tempfiles and we should also clean them up after the tests finished.

@markus2330 Does the quickdump problem still occur for you? AFAIK we never figured out what was wrong there. I also couldn’t reproduce it.

For gopts and specload see #3618

Shellrecorder tests already use kdb, and they work for both installed Elektra and from the build directory (even if Elektra is installed).

That works because shell tests always execute "$KDB" and never kdb. And also because make run_all and ctest use e.g. testscr_check_meta.sh scripts, while kdb uses e.g. check_meta.sh. In the first we set $KDB to ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin/kdb in the second one, it is simply set to kdb (and therefore resolved via $PATH).

No, KDB_EXEC_PATH is not set for an installed kdb (unless the user sets it)

I just took the master version of Elektra and installed it. The file /usr/local/lib/elektra/tool_exec/check_meta contains the line:

export KDB_EXEC_PATH="/home/klemens/libelektra/build/bin:$KDB_EXEC_PATH"

Of course this doesn’t affect testmod_* tests, but it is wrong nonetheless. I will create a new issue.
