Yes, of course.  The result was the same when running the test via my
build+check+install script or when running 'make check' interactively in the tests/ directory (of the build tree): FAIL without the patch, PASS with it.

The difference is that the test (t7000-scripting) asks a question ansered by
'n', whereas the example doesn't ask.  Thus the "echo n |" is ignored and
has no effect.

I too am experiencing a similar problem with failed tests when I run "make check" on parted-1.9.0.

I do not have the readline package installed and hence configure the code with:

    ./configure --without-readline

Perhaps the failure of the two tests is related to whether readline is installed or not?
