With coreutils-6.11 I see the same failures, plus 4 additional ones. > FAIL: help-version.log + FAIL: tty-eof.log + FAIL: help-version.log (exit: 1) + FAIL: ginstall + FAIL: tty-eof.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: parent-perm.log > FAIL: file-perm-race.log > FAIL: parent-perm-race.log > FAIL: existing-perm-race.log > FAIL: backup-dir.log > FAIL: src-base-dot.log > FAIL: preserve-2.log > FAIL: fail-perm.log > FAIL: cp-parents.log > FAIL: parent-perm.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: file-perm-race.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: parent-perm-race.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: existing-perm-race.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: backup-dir.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: src-base-dot.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: preserve-2.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: fail-perm.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: cp-parents.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: basic-1.log > FAIL: create-leading.log > FAIL: basic-1.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: create-leading.log (exit: 1) > FAIL: misc.log > FAIL: misc.log (exit: 1)
Looking at it one by one: 1) cp/parent-perm.log failed like this: + . /../umask-check ./parent-perm: line 27: /../umask-check: No such file or directory Apparently $abs_srcdir expanded to empty. This is normal, because cp/Makefile has a TESTS_ENVIRONMENT variable which takes care to set abs_top_builddir, abs_top_srcdir, srcdir, top_srcdir as environment variables, but abs_srcdir is missing. Up to you to decide whether $abs_srcdir is a typo, or this variable is missing from tests/check.mk.
