It turned out darcs doesn't use test planning. Even if it's added later, I only bump the test counter on failure, so it should be non-invasive. I've tested that the unmodified resolve (sic) test case fails deterministically after the test suite patch has been applied. The updated patches can be pulled from: <http://darcs.enyo.de/fw/darcs/stable-changes/> Regarding the Perl 5.6.1 dependency: I don't think it's a problem. The test suite already uses the qr// regexp-as-first-class-object feature, which doesn't exist prior to Perl 5.6. _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
