[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60998] fatal: unable to find current directory

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #60998 (project octave):

Thanks for uploading those files.

It looks like the test "checking whether getcwd handles long file names
properly" failed for you. That causes the build system to use gnulib's
replacement of that function.
The same test succeeds for me on Ubuntu 21.04.
It might be that this is a bug in that function that has been fixed in the
meantime (CentOS 7's code base is "old" compared to Ubuntu 21.04). But even if
it is, gnulib's replacement should probably not cause the error you are
seeing.

Is this on a local disc? Or some kind of network share?
