bug#11924: t/aclocal7.sh fails after updating from 1.12.1 to 1.12.2
Hi, we have recently updated from Automake 1.12.1 to 1.12.2 in the NixOS Linux distribution. That change caused a unit test failure in t/aclocal7.sh. The complete build log is available here: http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2786726 Unfortunately, the log shows very little information about the nature of that test. It just says: FAIL: t/aclocal7.sh Could someone help me out understanding exactly why that test failed and -- more importantly -- how to fix it? Take care, Peter

Hi Stefano, > For future reference: the complete log (usually quite verbose, in the > case of Automake tests) is automatically saved in the 't/aclocal7.log' > file by the Automake test harness. on NixOS, those tests are usually run automatically by a build daemon. The sandbox used for the build isn't available anymore once the build has terminated. Generally speaking, I don't see anything that wasn't written to stdout or stderr. Anyway, it's good to know where those logs are nonetheless; thank you for the pointer. Take care, Peter

Hi Stefano, > Then I advise you to add "VERBOSE=yes" to the environment of the > sandbox, so that the Automake-generated testsuite harnesses will copy > the content of test-suite.log on stdout in case of failure. this is good advice, thank you very much! Take care, Peter
