Failing tests when building joern about joern

[vlad902]

The test failures are because of a known deprecated dependency on neo4j for some old tests laying around from the joern days. You can safely ignore them. build.sh does not run tests by default (this is hacky, you can comment out the @test annotations on those tests if you'd rather not do that.)

As far as the installpy change, this is because of how OS X has installed python by default. This fixes it as well:

Thanks for that! That definitely fixes the python issue. Unfortunately, I still have the failed tests, so they must be an independent problem.

EDIT: Whoops, missed your first bit about the tests. Yes, that makes sense. I'll give that a try.

It is, I pressed comment too quickly and went back and edited the reply. The failed tests you're experiencing are an unfortunately expected at this time and can be ignored.

Yes! Problem fixed. Everything builds fine when running build.sh. Thank you for your assistance!
