Package: tar Version: 1.23-2.1 Severity: normal Hi,
I have been trying to compile tar from source package, and ended with error in testsuite. I was using sbuild, with squeeze schroot, inside lenny i386. Was using ext3 (rw,noatime,relatime,data=writeback,usrquota). log below =========================================== # -*- compilation -*- 91. remfiles01.at:28: testing remove-files with compression ... ../remfiles01.at:32: cat /dev/null | gzip - > /dev/null 2>&1 || exit 77 test -z "`sort < /dev/null 2>&1`" || exit 77 mkdir dir cd dir genfile --file a --length 0 chmod 0 a genfile --file b mkdir c # Depending on when the SIGPIPE gets delivered, the invocation below # may finish with either # tar: a: Cannot write: Broken pipe # or # tar: Child returned status 2 tar -c -f a -z --remove-files b c 2>err EC=$? sed -n '/(child)/p' err >&2 rm err find . | sort exit $EC --- - 2010-09-09 20:22:33.935604613 +0000 +++ /build/root-tar_1.23-2.1-i386-X1ixBU/tar-1.23-2.1/tests/testsuite.dir/at- groups/91/stderr 2010-09-09 20:22:33.000000000 +0000 @@ -1,3 +1 @@ -tar (child): a: Cannot open: Permission denied -tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now --- - 2010-09-09 20:22:33.936612708 +0000 +++ /build/root-tar_1.23-2.1-i386-X1ixBU/tar-1.23-2.1/tests/testsuite.dir/at- groups/91/stdout 2010-09-09 20:22:33.000000000 +0000 @@ -1,5 +1,3 @@ . ./a -./b -./c ../remfiles01.at:32: exit code was 0, expected 2 91. remfiles01.at:28: 91. remove-files with compression (remfiles01.at:28): FAILED (remfiles01.at:32) =========================================== In fact I think tar here is performing correctly. I inspected file "a" (after renaming to output.tar.gz), and it contains file "b", and directory "c"). No signal is raised. File "a" is overwritten, as expected. Why it should raise error? I do not know why I have this error, as buildd do not have this problem: https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=tar;ver=1.23-2.1;arch=kfreebsd-i386;stamp=1279642891 I was thinking this was compile options, but I tested it with no compile options (just clear source package), and it also do not compile. All other tests passes/skipped as expected. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to pl_PL.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages tar depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-5 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib tar recommends no packages.
