As you noted the tests are correctly skipped on the buildds following an lseeksize test; I'd prefer not to add another gratuitous skip without first understanding what's going on here. Please could you provide the output of perl -V on the system you're using where this test fails? > The third failed test is one of 13 socket sub-tests: > not ok 11 - peer from recv() should be empty or the remote name > > According to Samuel Thibault this test is questionable and should be > discussed with upstream: > "The test seems fishy to me: it is making sure that the name as returned > by recv is *exactly* the same as what the server socket is bound to, > which is 0.0.0.0:some_port but I would expect recv to return the actual > IP address used in the socket, not 0.0.0.0.

I've forwarded this report to upstream as <https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=122657>. > Anyway, attached are three patches to disable these tests for Hurd: > --- a/t/io/socket.t.orig 2014-05-26 15:34:20.000000000 +0200 > +++ b/t/io/socket.t 2014-08-20 14:30:57.000000000 +0200 > @@ -18,6 +18,10 @@ > unless ($Config{extensions} =~ /\bSocket\b/) { > skip_all('-- Socket not available'); > } > + if ($^O eq 'gnu') { > + print("1..0 # SKIP fails on GNU/Hurd (Debian #XXXX)\n"); > + exit(0); > + } > } We shouldn't be skipping all tests because one fails; however I will skip the offending test for now pending discussion with upstream.
