I'm building LFS-SVN on x86-64. I've experienced a quite large number of test failures in Ch. 6.12, and I'd like some help sorting through the information. Right now I don't know what's relevant and what's not. `expect -c spawn ls` gave the hoped for results, but I ran across the dreaded "no more pty's" in the test log. I checked using the FAQ and found that devpts was not mounted in my host (Ubuntu 10.04). I added it to devpts to /etc/fstab, rebooted, rebuilt binutils and tested it again. The results of both test runs are identical.
First of all, the tests bailed with the following (from `tail` and I've removed the leading directories for clarity) > PASS: test-expandargv-1. > PASS: test-expandargv-2. > PASS: test-expandargv-3. > make[3]: Leaving directory `/binutils-build/libiberty/testsuite' > make[2]: Leaving directory `/binutils-build/libiberty' > make[1]: Target `check-host' not remade because of errors. > make[1]: Nothing to be done for `check-target'. > make[1]: Leaving directory `/binutils-build' > make: *** [do-check] Error 2 > make: Target `check' not remade because of errors. Secondly, here is the results of `grep Summary` > === binutils Summary === > > # of unexpected failures 4 > # of unresolved testcases 31 > # of untested testcases 7 > # of unsupported tests 1 > -- > === ld Summary === > > # of expected passes 481 > # of unexpected failures 2 > # of expected failures 59 And, obviously, gas was not tested. The make, not test, log contained the following lines: > /binutils-2.20.1/bfd/configure: line 7240: /usr/bin/file: No such file > or directory > /binutils-2.20.1/opcodes/configure: line 6975: /usr/bin/file: No such > file or directory > /binutils-2.20.1/binutils-2.20.1/binutils/configure: line 7000: > /usr/bin/file: No such file or directory > /binutils-2.20.1/binutils-2.20.1/gas/configure: line 6957: > /usr/bin/file: No such file or directory > /binutils-2.20.1/gprof/configure: line 6895: /usr/bin/file: No such > file or directory > /usr/src/binutils-2.20.1/binutils-2.20.1/ld/configure: line 7345: > /usr/bin/file: No such file or directory I found this because of, from the test log, > -Running /binutils-2.20.1/binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/ar.exp ... > binutils-2.20.1-tests.log:FAIL: ar long file names I don't know if there's a connection or not. I've spent almost a day googling and reading. Right now I'm not sure what's relevant. Does anyone have any suggestions on troubleshooting or diagnoses? Also, is there I place I can go to look at test logs for the SVN book?
