I am running the build in X environment (Mate DM).

Package builds fine. And installs fine. And works fine.

The Makefile has this:

	@if ./qiv -f ./intro.jpg ; \
        then echo "-- Test Passed --" ; \
        else echo "-- Test Failed --" ; \
        fi

It justs echos this in build log which I saw.
