FAILED (misc/ul) --------------------------------------------------------------------- 7 tests of 155 FAILED --------------------------------------------------------------------- When there are subtests, something goes wrong in the alignment and in the messages of the summary line. For example: misc: getopt3 ... : non-option ... OK ... misc: getopt3 ... : non-option ... OK (all 6 sub-tests PASSED) Also, the complete testsuite summary is printed before the tests are even run, which I find odd: ============================================================================ Testsuite summary for util-linux 2.26-rc2 ============================================================================ # TOTAL: 0 # PASS: 0 # SKIP: 0 # XFAIL: 0 # FAIL: 0 # XPASS: 0 # ERROR: 0 ============================================================================ $ gcc --version | head -1 gcc (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5.1) 4.4.3 $ uname -rvm 2.6.32-72-generic #139-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jan 14 21:19:14 UTC 2015 i686 Benno -- http://www.fastmail.com - Choose from over 50 domains or use your own -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
