Hi Hazel, I guess you've never built in an xterm or equivalent. I do all my initial testing in urxvt on a desktop system. An example: PASS: test-getloadavg ../build-aux/test-driver: line 107: 12319 Aborted (core dumped) "$@" > $log_file 2>&1 FAIL: test-getlogin FAIL: test-getlogin =================== test-getlogin.c:60: assertion '! isatty (0)' failed FAIL test-getlogin (exit status: 134) On my server and test server I tend not to look at testsuites unless they fail unepectedly (and on some builds I might be using ssh from urxvt). But for my 8.0 build for my server I was sat at a tty, and there the failures match what you say: PASS: tests/misc/stty-invalid.sh FAIL: tests/misc/stty-pairs.sh stty-row-col.sh: skipped test: can't increase window size FAIL: tests/misc/stty-pairs =========================== (details snipped, I seeem to have more than 20000 lines of output from that test script, and probably only a few of them relate to the failure) ĸen -- `I shall take my mountains', said Lu-Tze. `The climate will be good for them.' -- Small Gods -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page Do not top post on this list.
