git master HEAD tests fail on Mageia Linux x86-64 v6 #45
Comments
Hi all, I filed this bug three weeks ago and it still appears to happen here. Is there any way I can do to speed up fixing it? |
Personally, I only provide tech support for DEB-based operating systems. Clearly there is some problem with the GMP libraries on your system. I suggest you start by testing libgmp and see if it works in other non-Perl applications, if it does then try your own hand-coded Perl applications using libgmp, if that works then get back to me. If it fails somewhere along the way, then you can try to fix your own operating system. |
Hi @wbraswell , thanks for your reply and I have some very good news. Following your lead, I set out to investigate why it fails on my Mageia v6 system and evidently worked fine on an Ubuntu 15.10 x86-64 VM. After trying to use a self-built perl, GMP libs, etc. on both systems and getting the same results, I found out that the problem was that I didn't have gmpxx and gmpxx-devel installed on the Mageia system. This was not detected earlier by the RPerl's build system and was only indicated by a warning by in Makefile.PL in _Inline/build/GMPInteger_cpp_pm_53_2166/ after I ran it manually. After doing "urpmi gmpxx-devel" all tests are successful. As a result, my suggestion is to add a sanity check in the main Makefile.PL that gmpxx is installed. ( It took me half a day to find out, but I guess it was worth it. ) |

Hi!
I'm using Mageia Linux ( http://www.mageia.org/en/ ) x86-64 v6 and after successfully running "perl Makefile.PL" and "make", then "make test" (from git master commit 0929708 ) failed with the following output:
Please look into fixing it and let me know if I could provide any assistance.
