Sorry, I meant to say 'make check' not 'make test'. Can I force 'make check' to run if 'make install' prior to 'make check' being run?
I guess I should really be saying that installing platform independent data files would depend on running 'make check' first, as there is nothing stopping someone installing the platform dependant binaries without running 'make check', but the platform independent data files are only created during the checking procedure.
Does that make sense?
