Comment (by Pierre Labastie):

 Well I think it's not the job of jhalfs to add "yes something"... My
 suggestion was for LFS :)

 There are two possibilities with vim-test.log: replace it with $TEST_LOG
 directly in the scriptlet or adding a line to copy it to $TEST_LOG. I'd
 rather use the first possibility. Note that "!|| true" should be added at
 the end, otherwise jhalfs would exit if an error occurs in tests.

 About BLFS: I remember I add some problems with a needed user input during
 tests a while ago. But IIRC, it had something to do with configuration
 files...

 Ah yes, we still have a note:
 {{{
 If the global configuration file <filename>/etc/vimrc</filename>
 references the <envar>VIMRUNTIME</envar> environment variable, some
 tests may complain about being unable to find the corresponding
 directory and wait for user input. If this is the case, this file
 should be saved and removed before running the tests.  Or if
 <xref linkend='bubblewrap'/> is installed, it's also possible to
 create a lightweight container environment where this file is hidden
 and run the tests in the container.
 }}}
