Re: [PATCH] Fix sloppy tests for silent rules

Oops, here’s the right patch: Make these tests more robust. Previously, they would fail if the name of the build directory contains `mv', which can very well happen with Nix. --- automake-1.11.1/tests/silent.test 2009-12-08 19:02:32.0 +0100 +++ automake-1.11.1/tests/silent.test 2010-07-0

[PATCH] Fix sloppy tests for silent rules

Hello, I noticed on NixOS GNU/Linux that silent*.test would randomly fail (see .) The reason is that these tests would fail if “mv” is found in the standard output of ‘make’, but the random build directory names used by Nix could very well contain this string.
