All I've put the first cut of a new development release of the LSB-FHS test suite together (1.01alpha). The initial changes in this new development are to address restructuring of the test suite so that the testsets are independent of the test framework. This allows this testset to be merged with other testsets that use the common VSXgen framework. What this means at the moment is that the LSB-FHS testset must be merged with the VSX-PCTS testsuite to form a meta suite into which additional testsets can be merged. (i.e. this testset will not function on its own).
Further work to be done on this release involves some restructuring of the VSX-PCTS suite to abstract out just the testsets from the framework (which will allow the LSB-FHS testset to run just with the VSXgen framework independent of the POSIX tests) , updated documentation for the restructuring , and the addition of some quick start tools for easier installation on Linux systems. Also at some point the LSB-FHS testsets themselves will need updating to match the FHS 2.1 spec when finalized. For those who wish to try out the first cut its now available from ftp://ftp.xopen.org/pub/lsb/test/ Please read in the file called "INSTALL" in the release for notes on the revised installation procedure . regards Andrew
