I just ran into this test failure: PYTHONPATH=/home/linux1/qemu/scripts python3 -B /home/linux1/qemu/tests/qapi-schema/test-qapi.py /home/linux1/qemu/tests/qapi-schema/unicode-str.json >tests/qapi-schema/unicode-str.test.out 2>tests/qapi-schema/unicode-str.test.err; echo $? >tests/qapi-schema/unicode-str.test.exit --- /home/linux1/qemu/tests/qapi-schema/unicode-str.err 2017-07-06 10:23:13.601812330 -0400 +++ - 2019-05-07 18:32:31.533125931 -0400 @@ -1 +1 @@ -tests/qapi-schema/unicode-str.json:2: 'command' uses invalid name 'é' +tests/qapi-schema/unicode-str.json:2: 'command' uses invalid name '\xe9' /home/linux1/qemu/tests/Makefile.include:1105: recipe for target 'check-tests/qapi-schema/unicode-str.json' failed make: *** [check-tests/qapi-schema/unicode-str.json] Error 1 make: Leaving directory '/home/linux1/qemu/build/all'
but oddly only when I ran 'make check' by logging directly into this machine (usually I run the tests automatically via ssh and scripting), which suggests it may depend on the locale settings. Does anybody recognize this ? I think LANG=C fails, but LANG=C.UTF-8 passes. Ideally our test suite should not depend on the locale or environment settings of the user running it. thanks -- PMM
