You've shown the verbose output of only the final test, and it happened to pass. For the failing test, usually there's a good hint or two in the vicinity of a "fail=1" assignment. Since coreutils-5.1.2 is so old, I'm already marking this "bug" as "done", but you're welcome to continue discussion, and if it's a bug that affects the latest, I'll happily reopen it. ------------=_1305282421-27529-1 Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Received: (at submit) by debbugs.gnu.org; 13 May 2011 09:46:38 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1] helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.69) (envelope-from ) id 1QKoxB-0006CJ-EM for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Fri, 13 May 2011 05:46:37 -0400 Received: from eggs.gnu.org ([140.186.70.92]) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.69) (envelope-from ) id 1QKox9-0006C5-12 for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Fri, 13 May 2011 05:46:36 -0400 Received: from Debian-exim by eggs.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1QKox3-000718-2v for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Fri, 13 May 2011 05:46:29 -0400 X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.3.1 (2010-03-16) on eggs.gnu.org X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-6.9 required=5.0 tests=BAYES_00,RCVD_IN_DNSWL_HI, T_RP_MATCHES_RCVD autolearn=unavailable version=3.3.1 Received: from lists.gnu.org ([140.186.70.17]:37638) by eggs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1QKox3-000714-1I for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Fri, 13 May 2011 05:46:29 -0400 Received: from eggs.gnu.org ([140.186.70.92]:56203) by lists.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1QKox2-0000m1-5W for bug-coreutils@gnu.org; Fri, 13 May 2011 05:46:28 -0400 Received: from Debian-exim by eggs.gnu.org with spam-scanned (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1QKox1-00070s-4Y for bug-coreutils@gnu.org; Fri, 13 May 2011 05:46:28 -0400 Received: from cantor.suse.de ([195.135.220.2]:36070 helo=mx1.suse.de) by eggs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.71) (envelope-from ) id 1QKox0-00070n-Vi for bug-coreutils@gnu.org; Fri, 13 May 2011 05:46:27 -0400 Received: from relay2.suse.de (charybdis-ext.suse.de [195.135.221.2]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by mx1.suse.de (Postfix) with ESMTP id 31F525362F for ; Fri, 13 May 2011 11:46:24 +0200 (CEST) Date: Fri, 13 May 2011 11:46:23 +0200 From: Philipp Thomas To: bug-coreutils@gnu.org Subject: tail-2 in coreutils 5.1.2 fails Message-ID: <20110513094623.GM12897@paradies.suse.de> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline X-Operating-System: openSUSE - Kernel Linux 2.6.38-31-desktop x86_64 Organization: SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, =?iso-8859-1?Q?G?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?F=3A_Jeff_Hawn=2C_Jennifer_Guild=2C_Felix_Imend=F6rffer=2C?= =?iso-8859-1?Q?_HRB_21284_=28AG_N=FCrnberg=29?= User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.21 (2010-09-15) X-detected-operating-system: by eggs.gnu.org: GNU/Linux 2.4-2.6 X-detected-operating-system: by eggs.gnu.org: GNU/Linux 2.6 (newer, 3) X-Received-From: 140.186.70.17 X-Spam-Score: -6.6 (------) X-Debbugs-Envelope-To: submit X-BeenThere: debbugs-submit@debbugs.gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.11 Precedence: list List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Errors-To: debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org X-Spam-Score: -6.6 (------) While building coreutils 5.1.2 (SUSE SLES9) tail-2 fails with the output below and I can't quite make out what the test is doing and whether I should investigate.
