GSL polynomial tests are failing
Status in gsl package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
---Problem Description---
GSL polynomial tests are failing
---uname output---
Linux lep8d 3.19.0-10-generic #10-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 23 16:18:35 UTC 2015
ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux
Machine Type = P8
---Steps to Reproduce---
Install a P8 Non Virtualized machine with Ubuntu 15.04 ISO.
Then install the GNU Scientific Library sources on the same.

I don't see this happening on Launchpad:

ppc64el.gsl_1.16%2Bdfsg-2build1_UPLOADING.txt.gz
What happens if you use the same source code provided by Canonical and
the configure flags used by them?
There are many tests being not executed if we build how Canonical has
build gsl.
The below mentioned tests are getting executed the way we build :
(./configure; make and make check )
gsl-1.16/linalg
gsl-1.16/eigen
gsl-1.16/specfunc
gsl-1.16/dht
gsl-1.16/qrng
gsl-1.16/rng
gsl-1.16/randist
gsl-1.16/fft
gsl-1.16/poly
Don't know why Canonical is not executing these tests which should
have been.
Looks like a known bug in gsl 1.16
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?40176
Cloned the latest gsl code from git repo ( git clone
git://git.savannah.gnu.org/gsl.git )
and make check passes on poly directory..
Please verify.
I have executed the tests again on my system with the latest git tree
source of gsl.

If you use a recent version of autotools, this script is obsolete
Just run autoreconf -i -f -v

Can we request Ubuntu to incorporate the latest version of the gsl
source from the git tree provided ==> git clone
git://git.savannah.gnu.org/gsl.git
So that this new sources can be incorporated and all failures will get
fixed.
