For the release I simply commented out the dubious tests.
Barney:
If I read parrotsketch correctly, these tests had not previously been
included in one of the test targets -- 'make fulltest', IIRC. So there
obviously were not conditions I had anticipated when I originally wrote
them.
Yes,
I had added 'manifest_tests' to 'fulltest' a couple of days earlier.
There was no special reason to add it, just aiming to make 'fulltest'
as comprehensive as possible. So if the failures are hard to fix,
you can simple remove 'manifest_tests' from 'fulltest'.
The failures should be easily reproducable.
i. Ununcomment the 'RT#51860' lines in t/manifest/*.t
ii. 'make release' => parrot-0.6.0-devel.tgz'
iii. Unpack the tarfile
iv. Run 'perl Configure.pl && make'
iv. Run 'make manifest_tests'
The '.svn' dirs are no in the unpacked dist. So it is assumed that 'svk'
is used. But I don't have 'svn' installed.
Thanks for looking into that,
Bernhard
If you could give me just a little bit more description of the problem
you experienced (or of the conditions under which the test will have to
be run), I will fix it.
Thank you very much.
