Hi lsb-test, As requested I tried using the new beta release of the PAM test suite,
ftp://ftp.freestandards.org/pub/lsb/test_suites/beta/binary/runtime/ lsb-test-pam-0.9.7-1.*.rpm Packaging issues ================ Since I'm testing on a debian system I converted the package to a deb using "alien -c" and then attempted to install, # dpkg -i lsb-test-pam_0.9.7-2_ia64.deb (Reading database ... 31158 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking lsb-test-pam (from lsb-test-pam_0.9.7-2_ia64.deb) ... dpkg: error processing lsb-test-pam_0.9.7-2_ia64.deb (--install): trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man1/tjreport.1.gz', which is also in package lsb-runtime-test dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: lsb-test-pam_0.9.7-2_ia64.deb it conflicts with lsb-runtime test. Comparing the files they install, they seem to have 167 in common. List at http://people.debian.org/~taggart/lsb/beta/common If these files are common then they should be split off into a common package. If they aren't then they should install into non-conlicting paths so that the test suites can coexist. Chris, I know you have mentioned wanting to fix this and that this is only a beta. I figured I'd point it out here for the benefit of others trying the beta. Once I removed lsb-runtime-test I was able to install lsb-test-pam. run_tests issues ================ After running run_tests and answering some questions I got this error on ia64, The LSB loader /lib/ld-lsb.so.1 does not exist. The test suites will not run without it. If you are running this on a non LSB compliant system and still wish to execute the test suites then creating a symlink for /lib/ld-lsb.so.1 to /lib/ld-linux.so.2 before re-running this program is most likely the correct thing to do. So it's looking for the ia32 linker. Changing run_tests to, LDSO=/lib/ld-lsb-ia64.so.1 allows it to proceed. It looks like lsb-runtime-test's version of run_tests gets this right. test issues =========== Running on Debian unstable I got identical results on ia64 and ia32. I saw these two failures, /tset/LSB.pam/testcases/pam_close_session/pam_close_session 2 FAIL /tset/LSB.pam/testcases/pam_open_session/pam_open_session 3 FAIL Details of my test runs are at, http://people.debian.org/~taggart/lsb/beta/ -- Matt Taggart [EMAIL PROTECTED]
