Correct URL is:

Yes, because the file is generated now. \o/

So, this tests explicitly installs a host executable in target/, yet the
assert is written to ensure there is no error: it compares against zero.

So this test-case will fail, by design.

But test should not fail; they should succeed. In this case, the assert
should check that there indeed is an error:

    self.assertEqual(len(lines), 1)

Or did I miss something?

Yann E. MORIN.
