You didn't use sudo to run those tests? Okay. That wasn't immediately clear. > Am I missing something? What's the connection to sudo here? The connection to sudo apparently a very early misunderstanding in this thread that you had run those tests by sudo. And then the discussion took off that direction. > I even changed to runlevel 3, renamed sudo, did the login on tty2, and > then "make check TESTS=cp/fiemap-perf" was skipped in the same way. > Sudo is not used here.

And to be completely honest it was also completely unnecessary. The necessary words were, "I didn't use sudo. I just ran it with a default PATH that did not include /usr/sbin:/sbin in it." I don't mean this harshly but since there was confusion felt it was necessary to say it very plainly. > According to my /etc/profile, such admin paths are only added for root: > > if test "$UID" = 0 ; then > test -d /opt/kde3/sbin && PATH=/opt/kde3/sbin:$PATH > PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH > fi Right. That is normal. The sbin paths are not normally assigned to non-root logins. But since many of us always augment our PATH with all of the sbin paths all of the time anyway it means that we sometimes don't run into problems when other people do. Bob
