Dr H:

Went further up in FC log of the sawfish install process and found that one
test failed out of 963 and then under that test list some comments on perl
were found:  I'm just showing a few of the tests above and below the failed
test, not all 993:

<paste>
lib/Locale/Maketext/t/60_super............ok
lib/Locale/Maketext/t/90_utf8.............ok
lib/locale................................FAILED at test 99
lib/Math/BigInt/t/bare_mbf................ok
lib/Math/BigInt/t/bare_mbi................ok
lib/Math/BigInt/t/bare_mif................ok
<snip>
<paste>
t/x2p/s2p.................................ok
Failed 1 test script out of 963, 99.90% okay.
### Since not all tests were successful, you may want to run some of
### them individually and examine any diagnostic messages they produce.
### See the INSTALL document's section on "make test".
### You have a good chance to get more information by running
###   ./perl harness
### in the 't' directory since most (>=80%) of the tests succeeded.
### You may have to set your dynamic library search path,
### DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, to point to the build directory:
###   setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH `pwd`; cd t; ./perl harness
###   DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`; export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH; cd t; ./perl
harness
###   export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`; cd t; ./perl harness
### for csh-style shells, like tcsh; or for traditional/modern
### Bourne-style shells, like bash, ksh, and zsh, respectively.

So I'm seeing that after the ### signs are some suggested options but it
seems like the suggestions are for different commands and now I know that
these suggestions exist in the log but what do I do with them?  E.g., what
is a 't' directory?

And, as I scroll thru the list I see that FC asks itself questions, e.g.,
"do we have the package?"  and then it answers itself, e.g., "yes" or "no" .
. . and then it does stuff, so why is it that FC isn't running the tests it
suggests in the log after the ### itself?  Considering it looks like only
one test failed why shut down the install?
