You can disable a test using a regex expression and the -E flag to
ctest. So instead of running 'make test', run it as:

$ ctest -E qtgui

That will prevent that particular test from being run (or any test
that regex matches to qtgui, which is only that one test).

If you are building on a headless box, you can also simply not build
gr-qtgui. Just pass '-DENABLE_GR_QTGUI=False' to cmake.
