+<para>This package has a test suite available which can perform a number of
+checks to ensure it built correctly. However, the Gettext test suite here in
+Chapter 5 is known to experience failures under certain host conditions -- for
+example, if it finds a Java compiler on the host. The Gettext test suite takes
+a very long time to run and is not considered critical. Therefore, we don't
+recommend running it here. Should you choose to run it, the following command
+will do so:</para>
+
+<screen><userinput>make check</userinput></screen>
