From the stable book [ 6.2 ] immediately after the instruction to grep for Error - You will probably see an expected (ignored) failure in the posix/annexc test. > > I'm not sure if it is relevant but just in case it is, the patch I > was to apply to glibc > called fix_test-1 was not installed as it reported it had already > been done. > Oh, you are using an old version of the book, with glibc-2.3.5. Perhaps we didn't mention posix/annexc explicitly in those days, I don't remember. In this case, the message is worrying - if you read that patch, it only updates nptl-tst-cancel7.c and as far as I can see none of our other patches against 2.3.5 alter that file. You seem to have done something wrong, perhaps trying to apply the patch twice, perhaps something more serious (e.g. rebuilding glibc after a failed attempt, without deleting the extracted source). In general, using an old version of the book is a bad idea.
