[Bucardo-general] error running tests on Debian lenny

Hi Dafydd,

Thanks for your response, I found out that I had to install
Test::Dynamic from CPAN, NOT the one that came with the Bucardo
distribution to get this to work. I also install DBIx::Safe from CPAN.

Even after that, about 728 tests run, but in the end it says that 700
of them failed. This is incorrect. If you add the VERBOSE option, you
will see that all the tests pass, for some reason the summary says
that they failed.

I'm not sure I want to use Bucardo at the moment, how are you finding
it in terms of reliability. Does it require a lot of maintenance and
conflict resolution? I'm thinking that maintaining a master-master
might be a lot of work. What is your experience so far?

Thanks,
Khusro
