But, I think that *Errors* in chapter 6 tests (other than the toolchain - or at least least gcc), often benefit from being mentioned - otherwise people run the tests and panic if they don't see perfection. The patch to 1.12.3 fixed a race in the test. Maybe I'm overtuned to Errors in automake tests at the moment, after being bugged by 80+ in previosu 1.12 scripted runs. I don't usually pay any attention to skipped tests, except if I notice that someone here had a skip where mine ran (locales). Similarly, I haven't yet been persuaded to investigate XPASS failures in gcc. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
