{{{
Did you do an 'svn up' of your jhalfs-trunk checkout before trying to
build with the upgraded expect package committed?
}}}
thank, that fixed jhalf build until I was hit by ../vim-7.3-lang.*: Cannot
open
I remember something need to be changed on config for that.
{{{
I don't see the point in changing the package titles as your patch does.
The fact that, IMO, upstream misname their tarballs, doesn't mean our page
titles should be similarly misnamed.
}}}
I don't disagree for the misnaming perception. But I am afraid tcl is now
consistant without the '-' and expect package look now to follow the same
convention.
Anyway libexpect name should be fixed.
{{{
Also, your testsuite patch would mean that the host would need to have
expect, tcl & dejagnu installed so that the chapter 5 toolchain tests can
be run.
}}}
This is my error. I just find that my build system miss without reason
many chapter05 tests. As I had rebuild with tcl/expect/dejagnu at the end
of chap05 with only less errors in expect, I wrongly conclude that that
was the right thing.
tcl/expect/dejagnu are not rebuild later and that's hard to upgrade one of
those packages when you do not have a test suite that you can trust.
Maybe build tcl/expect/dejagnu first at their actual place and test them
only later at end of chap05. Should be only reserved for the extrem tests
addict.
