If they just run "ctest" right after the installation (which is a
very good idea), I assume the SAXS tests will run by default, and
they will get a lot of failures and be confused.
Actually they will get precisely one failure.
But otherwise, it is nice if after you download the release and run
cmake, you will get a completely clean result
It would also be nice if when you sent your kids to school, the school
didn't tell you that all the teachers were deranged lunatics. But if
they were, wouldn't you want to know? ;)
Anyhow, if you want an artificially "clean" result, there are two
perfectly good decorators to skip a test or to mark the failure as
expected. Look for @unittest.skip or @unittest.expectedFailure in the
existing set of tests.
