Description

When I build cmark (0.29.0 and 0.28.3) in the Fedora buildsystem there are two test failures:

The following tests FAILED:
	  2 - html_normalization (Failed)
	  5 - roundtriptest_executable (Failed)
Errors while running CTest
make: *** [Makefile:133: test] Error 8

Would it be possible to print out more details about the failures?

The previous successful Fedora build with the testsuite was in July 2019:

I am not sure what changed...

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Fedora build and running CTest around html_normalization and roundtriptest_executable. Inspect Makefile:133 and the test output to determine why these two tests fail and what additional failure details should be printed. Done means the failures are explained and the test command exposes enough diagnostic information.
