Comment (by mojca):

 The FAQ entry is now
 [https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/master/googletest/docs/FAQ.md
 #why-is-it-not-recommended-to-install-a-pre-compiled-copy-of-google-test-
 for-example-into-usrlocal here].

 I just stumbled on this after playing with dvisvgm. I wanted to run tests
 when I got an error:
 {{{
 BezierTest.cpp:21:10: fatal error: 'gtest/gtest.h' file not found
 #include <gtest/gtest.h>
          ^
 1 error generated.
 }}}

 Saying to myself: oh, look, we have a port for gtest, let's try it out. Of
 course it didn't install since SVN on google code is no longer working, so
 I ported it to github (I'll add an attachment).

 It built fine, but failed during `destroot` with
 {{{
 Error: Failed to destroot gtest: error copying
 "/path/to/gtest/work/build/libgtest.a": no such file or directory
 }}}

 Then I found this ticket.

 In the light of this discussion I was wondering if there was a way to at
 least create some PortGroup that could simplify testing other ports using
 googletest.
