Re: [platform-testers] new snapshot available: sed-4.8.44-da23

[Efraim Flashner]

I get 2 test failures when building for arm-linux-gnueabihf using an
aarch64 host (pine64) on Guix. Currently these two tests are failing
already on armhf on Guix, as seen here¹, so we've cherry-picked a gnulib
commit² (on several packages) to skip some of those tests.

With that patch applied sed builds just fine on armhf-linux.

FAIL: test-perror2
==================

test-perror2.c:84: assertion 'msg3 == msg4 || STREQ (msg3, str3)' failed
FAIL test-perror2 (exit status: 134)

FAIL: test-strerror_r
=====================

test-strerror_r.c:170: assertion 'msg3 == msg4 || STREQ (msg3, str3)' failed
FAIL test-strerror_r (exit status: 134)
