Hello! While upgrading the GNU system to Automake 1.14.1, I noticed that a few tests emit warnings like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- SKIP: t/spy-rm.tap 1 # SKIP /bin/rm not found PASS: t/spy-rm.tap 2 - rm -f SKIP: t/spy-rm.tap 3 # SKIP /bin/rm not found PASS: t/spy-rm.tap 4 - rm -rf SKIP: t/spy-rm.tap 5 # SKIP /bin/rm not found PASS: t/spy-rm.tap 6 - rm -fr --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- There’s no /bin/rm in Guix build environments, hence the message (in fact, there’s no /bin at all.) However, in general, I think packages should not rely on hardcoded file names, and instead use AC_PATH_PROG or similar mechanisms to get the right file name. Would it be possible to change these tests to use ‘rm’ instead of /bin/rm? What do you think? Thanks, Ludo’.
