That one test failed on all the machines where I ran the testsuite. Seems to be a new failure since 2.34.1 (my previous builds). If you have nothing better to do, I guess you could look at this when the completed system is running, and see if a fresh build + test (not an install!) is also affected. From that spinics thread, ncursesw was picked up - on LFS that would be correct. But in the great scheme of things I would not worry about this unless the details of the util-linux testsuite are interesting to you. ĸen -- The beauty of reading a page of de Selby is that it leads one inescapably to the conclusion that one is not, of all nincompoops, the greatest. -- du Garbandier -- 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.
