Hmm, I'll see if I can fix that for the next release if that's ok with you.

Yeah, for now I'll just have to package for Gentoo from the archive generated by Github instead.

You actually run the tests as part of the install procedure? Commendable. Hopefully now that I've got release procedures down, I'll be able to release more often. I'm hoping for a release every 3 months.

This is an opt-in feature. User can enable tests to run when building/installing the package. And it runs on end user's machine, with user's CXXFLAGS, etc.
As packagers, we support tests in packages where upstream have them.
