I'm in the middle of trying to build a new system on my old mac G5 (ppc64, but using linux32 to compile userspace) and the kbd tests failed with: Making check in tests make[1]: Entering directory `/building/kbd-2.0.0/tests' make libkeymap-init libkeymap-kmap libkeymap-keys libkeymap-parse libkeymap-charset dumpkeys-fulltable dumpkeys-mktable dumpkeys-bkeymap make[2]: Entering directory `/building/kbd-2.0.0/tests' make[2]: `libkeymap-init' is up to date. make[2]: `libkeymap-kmap' is up to date. make[2]: `libkeymap-keys' is up to date. make[2]: `libkeymap-parse' is up to date. make[2]: `libkeymap-charset' is up to date. sed \ -e 's,2.0.0,2.0.0,g' \ -e 's,@DATADIR@,.,g' \ -e 's,@BUILDDIR@,.,g' \ ./dumpkeys-fulltable touch -r dumpkeys-fulltable.in ./dumpkeys-fulltable chmod 755 ./dumpkeys-fulltable sed \ -e 's,2.0.0,2.0.0,g' \ -e 's,@DATADIR@,.,g' \ -e 's,@BUILDDIR@,.,g' \ ./dumpkeys-mktable touch -r dumpkeys-mktable.in ./dumpkeys-mktable chmod 755 ./dumpkeys-mktable sed \ -e 's,2.0.0,2.0.0,g' \ -e 's,@DATADIR@,.,g' \ -e 's,@BUILDDIR@,.,g' \ ./dumpkeys-bkeymap touch -r dumpkeys-bkeymap.in ./dumpkeys-bkeymap chmod 755 ./dumpkeys-bkeymap make[2]: Leaving directory `/building/kbd-2.0.0/tests' make check-TESTS make[2]: Entering directory `/building/kbd-2.0.0/tests' Running suite(s): libkeymap 100%: Checks: 3, Failures: 0, Errors: 0 PASS: libkeymap-init Running suite(s): libkeymap 100%: Checks: 2, Failures: 0, Errors: 0 PASS: libkeymap-kmap Running suite(s): libkeymap 100%: Checks: 5, Failures: 0, Errors: 0 PASS: libkeymap-keys Running suite(s): libkeymap 100%: Checks: 7, Failures: 0, Errors: 0 PASS: libkeymap-parse Running suite(s): libkeymap 100%: Checks: 2, Failures: 0, Errors: 0 PASS: libkeymap-charset PASS: dumpkeys-fulltable failed FAIL: dumpkeys-mktable failed FAIL: dumpkeys-bkeymap ========================================= 2 of 8 tests failed Please report to gladkov.alexey@gmail.com ========================================= make[2]: *** [check-TESTS] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/building/kbd-2.0.0/tests' make[1]: *** [check-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/building/kbd-2.0.0/tests' make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1 This is with ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-vlock --enable-libkeymap (although I'm not quite sure what benefit libkeymap actually provides). The temp.* files were still there, and cat'ing them has trashed that tty on this old system, so .bz2 versions are attached. Still building the system (based on recent LFS), the machine is horrendously slow so it's going to be a while before it (hopefully) gets to a usable state. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce
