From: "Nelson H. F. Beebe" <beebe <at> math.utah.edu> To: bug-coreutils <at> gnu.org Cc: beebe <at> math.utah.edu Subject: [bug-coreutils] build glitches in coreutils-8.20 Date: Tue, 6 Nov 2012 06:40:03 -0700 (MST)
I've now successfully built and installed coreutils-8.20 on about 20 flavors of Unix on several different CPU families. The same single build repair was needed on several systems, and was easily fixed by manually tweaking a compiler command: Linking of src/factor requires addition of -liconv and -lgmp, because they are missing in the Makefile Here is a summary of the test failures reported by "make check" for those systems where I had to apply the above tweak: System types: gen-ppc64 Gentoo 2.1 PowerPC-64 gen-sparc Gentoo 2.1 SPARC macosx-ppc Mac OS X 10.5.8 PowerPC macosx-x64 Mac OS X 10.5.8 x86_64 mirbsd-x86 MirBSD 10 x86 osuse-x64 openSUSE 11.4 x86_64 rh5-x64 Red Hat 5.8 x86_64 rh6-x64 Red Hat 6.3 x86_64 sol10-sparc Solaris 10 SPARC sol11-x64 Solaris 11 x86_64 ubuntu-x86 Ubuntu 11.10 x86 ============================================================ failing test name (sort key) system type ============================================================ expr rh6-x64 factor rh5-x64 factor macosx-ppc factor rh6-x64 test-getlogin gen-sparc test-getlogin osuse-x64 test-getlogin ubuntu-x86 test-getlogin (exit: 134) gen-sparc test-getlogin (exit: 134) osuse-x64 test-getlogin (exit: 134) ubuntu-x86 test-mbsalign mirbsd-x86 test-mbsalign (exit: 134) mirbsd-x86 test-parse-datetime mirbsd-x86 test-parse-datetime (exit: 134) mirbsd-x86 test-posixtm mirbsd-x86 test-posixtm (exit: 1) mirbsd-x86 test-select mirbsd-x86 test-select (exit: 1) mirbsd-x86 test-verify.sh mirbsd-x86 test-verify.sh (exit: 1) mirbsd-x86 tests/cp/fiemap-FMR.sh gen-ppc64 tests/cp/fiemap-FMR.sh (exit: 1) gen-ppc64 tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh macosx-ppc tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh sol10-sparc tests/cp/nfs-removal-race.sh (exit: 99) macosx-ppc tests/cp/same-file.sh sol11-x64 tests/cp/sparse.sh rh6-x64 tests/cp/sparse.sh (exit: 99) rh6-x64 tests/dd/reblock.sh sol11-x64 tests/du/basic.sh rh6-x64 tests/du/basic.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/install/install-C.sh macosx-ppc tests/install/install-C.sh (exit: 1) macosx-ppc tests/ls/getxattr-speedup.sh macosx-ppc tests/ls/getxattr-speedup.sh (exit: 99) macosx-ppc tests/ls/stat-free-color.sh rh6-x64 tests/ls/stat-free-color.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/misc/cat-buf.sh sol11-x64 tests/misc/expr.pl rh6-x64 tests/misc/expr.pl (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/misc/factor.pl rh5-x64 tests/misc/factor.pl macosx-ppc tests/misc/factor.pl rh6-x64 tests/misc/factor.pl (exit: 1) rh5-x64 tests/misc/factor.pl (exit: 1) macosx-ppc tests/misc/factor.pl (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/misc/help-version.sh rh5-x64 tests/misc/help-version.sh macosx-ppc tests/misc/help-version.sh rh6-x64 tests/misc/help-version.sh (exit: 1) rh5-x64 tests/misc/help-version.sh (exit: 1) macosx-ppc tests/misc/help-version.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/misc/invalid-opt.pl rh5-x64 tests/misc/invalid-opt.pl rh6-x64 tests/misc/invalid-opt.pl (exit: 1) rh5-x64 tests/misc/invalid-opt.pl (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/misc/od-multiple-t.sh rh6-x64 tests/misc/od-multiple-t.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/misc/sort-discrim.sh rh6-x64 tests/misc/sort-discrim.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/misc/sort-u-FMR.sh gen-ppc64 tests/misc/sort-u-FMR.sh (exit: 1) gen-ppc64 tests/misc/stat-birthtime.sh rh6-x64 tests/misc/stat-birthtime.sh sol11-x64 tests/misc/stat-birthtime.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/misc/stdbuf.sh sol11-x64 tests/misc/timeout-parameters.sh sol10-sparc tests/misc/timeout-parameters.sh rh6-x64 tests/misc/timeout-parameters.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/mv/i-3.sh sol11-x64 tests/mv/part-symlink.sh sol11-x64 tests/mv/part-symlink.sh (exit: 1) sol11-x64 tests/mv/perm-1.sh sol11-x64 tests/mv/perm-1.sh (exit: 1) sol11-x64 tests/rm/cycle.sh sol11-x64 tests/rm/cycle.sh (exit: 1) sol11-x64 tests/rm/dangling-symlink.sh sol11-x64 tests/rm/rm1.sh sol11-x64 tests/rm/rm1.sh (exit: 1) sol11-x64 tests/rm/unread3.sh macosx-ppc tests/rm/unread3.sh (exit: 1) macosx-ppc tests/split/suffix-length.sh rh6-x64 tests/split/suffix-length.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing.sh rh6-x64 tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing.sh sol11-x64 tests/tail-2/F-vs-missing.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/tail-2/F-vs-rename.sh sol11-x64 tests/tail-2/flush-initial.sh sol11-x64 tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse.sh rh6-x64 tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse.sh sol11-x64 tests/tail-2/inotify-hash-abuse.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/tail-2/pipe-f2.sh rh6-x64 tests/tail-2/pipe-f2.sh sol11-x64 tests/tail-2/pipe-f2.sh (exit: 1) rh6-x64 tests/tail-2/wait.sh sol11-x64 ============================================================ One or more builds on these systems reported "All nnn tests passed", with NO test failures at all: Fedora 17 IA-32 (Pentium) Red Hat 5.6 IA-32 (Pentium) Red Hat 5.6 IA-64 (Itanium) gen-sparc osuse-x64 sol10-sparc ubuntu-x86 There is overlap between those two lists because builds were done with different compilers and compilation options on most systems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Nelson H.
