Public bug reported:
Automatic installation of system dependancies doesn't work. I'm
prompted for a password and the installation silently fails. As seen
here:
aidan@ubibox ~ $ phoronix-test-suite benchmark pts/dbench
The following dependencies are needed and will be installed:
- autoconf
- libpopt-dev
This process may take several minutes.
[sudo] password for aidan:
sudo: aptitude -y install autoconf libpopt-dev: command not found
There are dependencies still missing from the system:
- Autoconf
- Popt
1: Ignore missing dependencies and proceed with installation.
2: Skip installing the tests with missing dependencies.
3: Re-attempt to install the missing dependencies.
4: Quit the current Phoronix Test Suite process.
Missing dependencies action: 4
-------------
The problem is in /usr/share/phoronix-test-suite/pts-core/external-test-
dependencies/scripts/install-ubuntu-packages.sh, superfluous syntax.. so
I just went ahead and stripped it out, removed a pontless then in the
first if, too:
