I compiled gnu smalltalk on the following platform
Linux lxhdma01 2.4.21-27.EL #1 Wed Dec 1 22:08:15 EST 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
and got 1 failed test which I report with the hope it will help you fix it.

The GDBM tests could not set up the test database: the relevant line is this one:

UndefinedObject(Object)>>doesNotUnderstand: #at:put:flag:

and from packages/gdbm/gdbmtests.st you can see that it is sent to a GDBM instance:

    cInterfaceSetup [
...
        database := GDBM
                    open: 'test-c.gdbm'
                    blockSize: 1024
                    flags: 2
...

                database
                    at: key
                    put: value
                    flag: 1.    "replace"
    ]

Can you see a reason why GNU Smalltalk could not create a test-c.gdbm with mode 666 (rw-rw-rw-) in the directory where gst is run, i.e. /auto/home/spi/caos/smalltalk-2.95e/tests ?

Thanks,

Paolo
