Thus said Ken Hornstein on Mon, 22 Jan 2018 14:20:32 -0500:
This is a patch release for 1.7, and fixes some output problems with
the format engine, issues with rcvdist(1) passing switches to post(8),
and a number of problems discovered with the test suite.
Speaking of the test suite, I ran it (on OpenBSD 6.1) and encountered a
failure I don't recall seeing previously:
first named test failure: replacement character in parameter value
FAIL: test/mhshow/test-charset
...
=======================================
2 of 104 tests failed
(8 tests were not run)
Please report to nmh-workers@nongnu.org
=======================================
I'm not sure why it failed, and while reading through test/common.sh, I
saw the following:
#### If you're reading this .... you can set MH_TEST_NOCLEANUP to prevent
#### the test suite from cleaning up the results of a test run, if you need
#### to do manual debugging on a test.
So I then ran:
env MH_TEST_NOCLEANUP=1 make check
And got a whopping 34 failures... not sure if that's expected or not. 2
of the test cases asked me interactively for Disposition of a message (I
opted for replace because I didn't know one way or the other).
=======================================
34 of 104 tests failed
(8 tests were not run)
Please report to nmh-workers@nongnu.org
=======================================
So, then I decided to run it a third time, again without the environment
variable and got 4 failures (2 more than before without the variable)
among which:
inc: field name
"ThisHeaderFieldNameIsWaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayTooLong" exceeds 997 bytes
??Format error (message 12) in component 5
inc: m_getfld() called with bogus state of -2
FAIL: test/folder/test-packf
And
inc: field name
"ThisHeaderFieldNameIsWaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayTooLong" exceeds 997 bytes
??Format error (message 24) in component 5
inc: m_getfld() called with bogus state of -2'
FAIL: test/inc/test-inc-scanout
Maybe the environment variable to not clean up corrupted the test
environment and I need some way to clean it up? I can rerun ``make
check'' multiple times and get a consistent 2 failures, but if I use
that environment variable it then hits 34 failures, and then without
again 4.
Also, how do I check just a single test?
Thanks,
Andy
