Hi,I maintain tarlz in Gentoo's user-maintained overlay ::guru. Recently Gentoo's automatic test mechanism reported that tarlz's test suite failed [1]. I was surprised by that, as it worked for me™. Turns out, the error occurs only sometimes. But I could easily reproduce it with
while make check; do :; done The output of the erroneous testsuite run is testing tarlz-0.19... testing --list and --extract... testing --concatenate... testing --create... testing --diff... testing --delete... testing --dereference... testing --append... testing dirs and links... testing long names...testing bad input...tarlz: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors.
1108(5) testing --keep-damaged... tests failed. make: *** [Makefile:88: check] Error 1As of now, I always observed the same exit condition: 1108(5). So line 1108 iteration 5 in tarlz's check.sh script. That is
"${TARLZ}" -C dir2 -xf "${testdir}"/t155_fv${i}.tar.lz --permissive ||
test_failed $LINENO $i
Unfortunately this is as far as I was able to approach the issue. I
could not (yet) determine the root cause.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks :) - Florian 1: https://bugs.gentoo.org/783846
