I noticed that for quite a few packages, tests are disabled.
That might allow builds to ‘succeed’, but presumably these test
failures indicate real problems (otherwise, why have a test suite?),
so this only ignores potential brokenness without addressing it.

Before ignoring tests, it would be necessary to investigate the cause
of the test failures.

Greetings,
Maxime.
