Thanks.
Can you run each of these like this (e.g.)?
make check VERBOSE=t TESTS='lex3.text'
That might help me find out what is wrong.
Unfortunately I don't have ready access to a Cygwin box to do this
myself.
Okay, I've run the verbose checks -- but on the version of automake that
was built when I had autoconf-2.52 installed (2.52 was also installed as
I ran the tests). Recall that in *this* configuration, the failures were:
ccnoco
lex3
libtool2
pr9
pr87
UNEXPECTED PASS: subdir5
So, I ran the verbose tests on THOSE, not the ones in the earlier list.
I can reinstall autoconf-2.13, rebuild automake, and run the tests
specified in the earlier list if you want.
Some notes about the results for the current (autoconf-2.52-based) failures:
ccnoco -- reported on other platforms as "works with autoconf-2.13,
breaks with 2.52" Same here.
libtool2 -- I don't have libtool installed; this test looks for
"libtoolize" within the build directory. Is that significant? I have
just finished building libtool (*); I can install it, and rebuilt/retest
automake if you think that's a good idea.
(*) the libtool build was mostly successful -- it had three test
failures of its own: dry-run, build-relink, and quote, as well as a
skipped 'build-relink2' test. I think this is because not all of the
windows-dll-isms have been worked out (cygwin is a unix emulation layer
that runs on MSWindows)
subdir5 -- when I ran the verbose test, I got "Expected Failure" NOT
"unexpected pass". I don't know why the results were different between
the non-verbose and verbose runs.
