Thanks for that. This: t/scripts/minimum-version.t ............................... 51/100 # Failed test '/home/user/debian/lintian/t/runtests' # at /usr/share/perl5/Test/MinimumVersion.pm line 104. # /home/user/debian/lintian/t/runtests requires 5.012 due to syntax # version markers for 5.012: # - _yada_yada_yada is a false positive caused by libperl-minimumversion-perl 1.26-1; see #607547, which Bremner filed after discovering a similar issue whilst trying to test one of his recent patches. I confirmed at the time that downgrading to 1.25-2 makes the test pass again. > I heard that some of the legacy tests are known to fail on non-x86 > architectures; but I do not have a non-x86 system, so I could not verify > this. That would be libbaz (which I keep confusing with foo++ and referring to as libfoo) which is the only test case we have currently for shlib-with-non-pic-code. Trying to build such an object on amd64 will fail and subsequently make the test fail. There have been a number of discussions regarding how to fix this over the past couple of years (at least one involving beer) but we don't appear to have implemented a solution as yet.
