Hmm; I thought it was for the same reasons that tests had been disabled for megacmd but, taking another look at it, it seems I'm misremembering from the last time I worked on this.

It says it's failing because the MEGA_EMAIL and MEGA_PWD environment variables aren't set; from what I can tell, it uses those to test whether it can interact with a MEGA account appropriately. As that'd require requests to the internet, I'd expect the tests to fail in the end, still; is that a reasonable reason to disable them or should I try some other course of action?

Gotcha; because I'm unsure, how should I do that? Should I just attach two separate patches? Or should I open a separate ticket for the megacmd update (with its own separate patch, of course)?
