Hmm. It seems the only problem is the loss if that half line in the log. I wonder what could have caused that???? The only thing I can think of is a bug (race condition?) in a shared library that writes the code. > I'm beginning to think they are not staying on top of this test-suite. > I already reported one bug, both of us have found another. > > Maybe recommend not running it? Yes. Perhaps we should write a hint detailing these issues and put a note in the book about this testing pointing to the hint. I'm not sure it really benefits users to run an 80 SBU test that seems to be flakey. BTW, I'm going to post our messages to BLFS-dev. The thread started as a simple question, but has developed to a point where others should be able to see it. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
