I didn't see a catagory for tests on source forge so I'm reporting here. I pulled the release23-maint branch this morning and built on UnixWare 7.1.1. ----------------- test_dl skipped -- Could not open any shared libraries It does have shared libraries, just doesn't have /usr/lib/libc.so. Adding /usr/lib/libc.so.1 to the list will fix it. ----------------- test_largefile skipped -- filesystem does not have largefile support UnixWare 7.0.0 and later does have largefile suport. The config.log shows configure:9741: checking whether to enable large file support configure:9751: result: yes 12G of free space to play with. Any tips on how to track this down would be apreciated. ----------------- test test_resource produced unexpected output: ********************************************************************** *** mismatch between line 2 of expected output and line 2 of actual output: - True + False ********************************************************************** Tips on tracking this down? test test_tarfile crashed -- exceptions.IOError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: '/opt/src/utils/python/python-2.3/src/Lib/test/testtar.tar.gz' Some of us with multiple platforms build from a single read only source tree. ----------------- test_tempfile Exception exceptions.AttributeError: "mkstemped instance has no attribute 'fd'" in <bound method mkstemped.__del__ of <test.test_tempfile.mkstemped instance at 0x8acf06c>> ignored test test_tempfile failed -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/src/utils/python/python-2.3/src/Lib/test/test_tempfile.py", line 246, in test_basic_many File "/opt/src/utils/python/python-2.3/src/Lib/test/test_tempfile.py", line 229, in do_create File "/opt/src/utils/python/python-2.3/src/Lib/test/test_tempfile.py", line 45, in failOnException File "/opt/src/utils/python/python-2.3/src/Lib/unittest.py", line 270, in fail AssertionError: _mkstemp_inner raised exceptions.OSError: [Errno 24] Too many open files: '/tmp/aakOvEqF' limits.h shows 60 for OPEN_MAX. Lowering TEST_FILES to 55 in test_tempfile.py makes it pass. Maybe you just want to add openunix8 and unixware7 to if sys.platform == 'mac': -- Tim Rice Multitalents (707) 887-1469 tim@multitalents.net
