Hi All,
I'm packaging coreutils for OpenCSW[1] to replace our (now ancient)
versions of {sh,file,text}utils and have hit a few test failures I'm
hoping someone can help me solve.
We're still targeting solaris 8[2] for one more release, and this is
where the results were gathered (sparc in this case although i386 is
affected too).
The failing tests are:
cp/into-self
du/long-from-unreadable
I've traced the first failure to a bug dependent on the ordering of
results from readdir() but I don't see the bug itself in the code. In
many runs of the suite, the test passes. I can exercise the failure
in a more regular fashion by making the following change to the
cp/into-self test:
$ diff cp/into-self{,-orig}
42c42
< cp -rl dir a dir 2>> out && fail=1
---
> cp -rl a dir dir 2>> out && fail=1
I haven't had much time to look into the du failure, but will be
investigating more in the next few days. I haven't seen it occur on
i386 either, if that helps.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
