Summary: gettext test suite fails with grep 2.24 Project: GNU gettext Submitted by: dimstar Submitted on: Tue 12 Apr 2016 11:16:59 AM GMT Category: None Severity: 3 - Normal Item Group: None Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any _______________________________________________________ Details: While running make check using 'grep 2.24', the test suite fails: [ 540s] ============================================================================ [ 540s] Testsuite summary for gettext-tools 0.19.6 [ 540s] ============================================================================ [ 540s] # TOTAL: 408 [ 540s] # PASS: 373 [ 540s] # SKIP: 27 [ 540s] # XFAIL: 0 [ 540s] # FAIL: 8 [ 540s] # XPASS: 0 [ 540s] # ERROR: 0 [ 540s] ============================================================================ [ 540s] See tests/test-suite.log [ 540s] Please report to bug-gnu-gett...@gnu.org The reason is the way grep handles auto-detection of binary files vs pure text files (in case of gettext, we pipe everything) The easiest solution is to change "grep -v" to "grep -a -v", thus forcing 'text' mode _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?47674> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
