From 1d38887185c0424a82bcf05efbd8585df1bba8cf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Barker Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2026 09:56:41 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] tests: script: Disable size option test The test case for the --output-limit / -o option to `script` is flaky due to the way the output limit is handled. Depending on how buffer boundaries line up, the command may output different numbers of characters, but the test case expects the output to always be identical. This has been raised upstream [1], as there are multiple options for fixing this - we can change the behaviour of script, or we can relax the test case. Changing the behaviour of script may impact users so we don't want to rush ahead and do that. For now, we're going to disable the test case.
