Gary, in bug#15734 you sugested it was a problem with grep.
On my UnixWare box, I tested with a GNU grep first in the path and #21
did not fail. Now, which part is tripping up the system grep and what
to do about it, I do not know. ;-)

Yes, I'm seeing this failure on quite a few of my test architectures too, but
haven't been able to get to the bottom of it. If you have any insight, I'd be
very happy to hear about it.

A fix? ;-)

Thanks, I'll apply and push that presently.

Libtoolers!



The Libtool Team is pleased to announce the release of libtool 2.4.2.418.



This is a preliminary alpha release to begin platform testing in
preparation for the next stable release.


I built 2.4.2.418 on x86_64-pc-solaris2.11 (OpenIndiana 151a8) with
the Oracle Studio 12.3 toolchain.  There was one unexpected failure
in the new test suite:

 21: quote shell meta-characters in filenamesFAILED (libtool.at:120)

If I re-run the test-suite with --verbose, test #21 shows:

21. libtool.at:60: testing quote shell meta-characters in filenames ...
./libtool.at:102: $LIBTOOL -n --mode=$mode $preargs $preflag"$flag:test"
$postargs
stdout:
libtool: compile:  cc -c -DVAR=:test foo.c  -KPIC -DPIC -o .libs/foo.o
libtool: compile:  cc -c -DVAR=:test foo.c -o foo.o >/dev/null 2>&1
./libtool.at:106: grep "$mode:.*$match_preflag$flag:test " stdout
stdout:
libtool: compile:  cc -c -DVAR=:test foo.c  -KPIC -DPIC -o .libs/foo.o
libtool: compile:  cc -c -DVAR=:test foo.c -o foo.o >/dev/null 2>&1
./libtool.at:116: $LIBTOOL -n --mode=$mode $preargs $preflag"$flag\\:test\\" 
$postargs
stdout:
libtool: compile:  cc -c "-DVAR=\\:test\\" foo.c  -KPIC -DPIC -o .libs/foo.o
libtool: compile:  cc -c "-DVAR=\\:test\\" foo.c -o foo.o >/dev/null 2>&1
./libtool.at:120: grep 
"$mode:.*$match_preflag"'"\?'"$flag:test"'"\? ' stdout
stdout:
./libtool.at:120: exit code was 1, expected 0
21. libtool.at:60:  FAILED (libtool.at:120)


Let me know what other useful information I can provide.

There's a patch after my signature that alters the README to provide
the actual name of the log file from the test suite.
