The problem is, if I understand it correctly, the timeout value: By default the test timeout (tests/test_driver.pl) is 5 seconds, but in this particular test, the timeout is reached before hitting the "too many open files" error, which is the expected error. This is the case when the computer is not under a heavy load.
I changed the variable $test_timeout from 5 to 300 and I could build the package smoothly. > # Timeout in seconds. If the test takes longer than this we'll fail it. > $test_timeout = 300; The proper fix would be to run the fopen-fail test without timeout. vmjl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
