Hello Jakub,

At least that explains what's going on.

That's indeed confusing, I'll look into fixing that.

That's 8 + (binary or) 2, i. e. "no tests in this package" |
"at least one test skipped". The 8 is indeed confusing, but at least
it is consistently confusing with the "no tests" message above :-)

Thanks,

Martin
