Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: check
There are two cases where a build with check goes into an infinite loop. I
haven't tried it on any other system, but the latest ubuntu karmic.
Running `aclocal --verbose` on the attached example (check_money) causes the
script to freeze on:
aclocal: running autom4te --language Autoconf-without-aclocal-m4
'/usr/share/aclocal/check.m4' '/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' .....
Removing the AM_PATH_CHECK() allows the configure to be generated. When
I use the test/Makefile generated this way (and set up @CHECK_CFLAGS@
and ..._LIBS@ myself), `make check` never finishes (both on the example
and my project):
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/viraptor/Projects/xxx'
Making check in tests
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/viraptor/Projects/xxx/tests'
make check_xxx
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/viraptor/Projects/xxx/tests'
gcc ........ || echo './'`check_xxx.c
mv -f .deps/check_xxx-check_xxx.Tpo .deps/check_xxx-check_xxx.Po
make check_xxx
make[3]: Entering directory `/home/viraptor/Projects/xxx/tests'
make check_xxx
make[4]: Entering directory `/home/viraptor/Projects/xxx/tests'
make check_xxx
.... (this is called all the time recursively)
If I install the latest version of `check` from sources, everything
works just fine.
