Hard fail (autotest.at:266): FAILED > (autotest.at:266) This is a trivial failure due to a test that is not restrictive enough. The grep tries to find out if any of the tests in the micro testsuite succeeded bogusly; however, it is too lax and also matches the line that lists your host name. I'm applying the patch below to make the test more restrictive. Cheers, Ralf testsuite: avoid bogus hostname match from inner test logs. * tests/autotest.at (Hard fail): Check more restrictively for passed tests, so that hostnames recorded in the log file do not wrongly match.
