fair enough.

It's a subdirectory that is somewhere within the the directory that Fink temporarily creates to build perl-5.8.8, which is /sw/src/fink.build/perl588-5.8.8-9 or something similar. I don't know the exact location right now, but it may be /sw/src/fink.build/perl588-5.8.8-9/perl-5.8.8/t > > 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? There are two different varieties of tests going on. 1) The tests at the beginning are performed so that perl588 knows exactly what options to use in building. 2) The tests at the end are to make sure that everything is set up correctly. These are tests _using_ stuff from the perl588 package, and therefore require the package to have been built already, so they can't be run at step #1. Often packages either don't use #2 or they make it optional. In this case, the perl588 package appears to have had tests turned on explicitly for powerpc machines. Presumably it's set up to be fatal (by the Perl developers in this case, rather than by Fink) for failed tests because when it misbuilds it will behave improperly. > > F > http://surfingthetimelesswave.net > > > - -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk23EtkACgkQB8UpO3rKjQ9SjACfd9A9sqFEITAxpZKv5rhSYF0F 2Z4An2c2Q+TxT8jRo65d0LLnkz0xpzsy =jegh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
