Morning [finally someone in same time zone]

as this has been answered im adding a bit of info re "make -k switch"

using -k as a switch to make will continue on failure and not die immediately.

the target will fail overall as seen "not remade ....." using -j and -k together is
a good way to sledge hammer a build when its not 100% multi thread friendly
and builds things out of order.

from "man make"
---
       -k, --keep-going
Continue as much as possible after an error. While the target that failed, and those that depend on it, cannot be remade, the other dependencies of
            these targets can be processed all the same.

Hello

I ran a "make" and it completed successfully.

I then ran a "make --k check 2>&1 | tee glibc-check-log".

My question this :

Does the above "make check" fail if the expected failures(as listed in the book) fail ?

After the grep, I only had the expected errors, but the make ended with

make[1] : Target 'check' not remade because of errors.

Is that ok ?

Thanks

Jeff
