I just noticed a new test failure on macOS. I’m not sure when it
started as I haven’t run make test in quite a while.
F fileio-tests--odd-symlink-chars
Check that any non-NULL ASCII character can appear in a symlink.
(ert-test-failed
((should
(equal nil
(fileio-tests--symlink-failure)))
:form
(equal nil
(string-equal "
" "
"))
:value nil :explanation
(different-types nil
(string-equal "
" "
"))))
The ‘different‐types’ bit above has ^M in the first position and ^J in
the second (at least according to describe‐char).
My completely unscientific thought is that something is converting ^M
in filenames to ^J and it looks suspiciously like an old‐school
mac‐>unix line ending conversion.
