As per https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111608 and revalidated in
sharutils-4.6.1-pre3 the self tests fail if no previous sharutils is
installed. Furthermore, if a previous sharutils is installed the uudecode on
the previous version is tested rather than the version just built.
Solution:
some setting of the path in tests/shar-2 to ../src so the just compiled
uudecode can be used in the self test.
Hi Daniel,
Humph! Adding "../src" to the path was already done, but is inadequate.
In order to test certain features, I needed a shar archive that recursed,
so I placed it in a temp directory (favoring $TMPDIR, but otherwise /tmp).
Once the script does a "cd" over there, "../src" does not work very well.
So:
PATH=`cd ..;pwd`/src:$PATH
Yummy. Thanks for the report. Regards, Bruce
