Public bug reported:

After installing ns2{,doc,examples} and trying to run the validation
there are a couple of problems:

The validation script is gziped (
/usr/share/doc/ns2/examples/validate.gz )

All testsuites in /usr/share/doc/ns2/examples/tcl/test/ are gziped.

The test driver  /usr/share/doc/ns2/examples/tcl/test/test-all-
template1.gz is gziped.

After gunziping the necessary files and running the validation suite
further problems ensue:

ns: _o4 cleanup file7 timersA2_(timestamps,_fine-grained_clock): Can't open 
perl script "../../bin/set_flow_id": No such file or directory
Can't open perl script "../../bin/getrc": No such file or directory
Can't open perl script "../../bin/raw2xg": No such file or directory
    while executing
"exec $PERL ../../bin/set_flow_id -s all.tr |  $PERL ../../bin/getrc -s 2 -d 3 
|  $PERL ../../bin/raw2xg -s 0.01 -m 90 -t $file > temp.rands"

Imho you should ship a script that unpacks the test suite into a user
specified directory and ship the nescessary perl files to run the test
suite.
