In subsequentcheck? If that should indeed be the case even then, we can make a
separate "make pythoncheck" target.

Now you are the one being academic here.  Stick to the topic please,
which is whether or not Python tests should be used to test core
functionality.  Nobody is talking about boost here.

I am talking about testing the _product_ here.

But to answer that question, if we discover a bug in boost, that should
be fixed and tested in the boost project. Not us.

A bug in boost is a bug in LibreOffice. At least on Windows, but for TDF builds
also elsewhere. And a test that finds a bug is still a good test, even if it
wasnt written for that.

Best,

Bjoern
