So it looks like vim is running during the tests and trying to run interactively - displaying itself in your terminal if you run it directly. It is certainly pretty hard to read in the output. You could look into whether vim actually needs a real terminal of some kind to run its tests. If it does, maybe you could run it under screen? You could speak to the Ubuntu or Debian maintainer of vim who may have some experience with it, or be able to help you work out if it really is just specific to PPAs. (For instance can you rebuild the Ubuntu source package unchanged in a PPA?) At the end, where it's killed by sigterm, it seems to have been opening test.out which is already open. Is this the intended behaviour of this test or is something going wrong? -- Martin <http://launchpad.net/~mbp/>
