GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 346828
option-test fails (arg_test5 retval assertion)
Last modified: 2008-06-16 14:27:55 UTC
I successfully compiled glib-2.12.0 on OS X 10.3 (darwin7.9.0) with Xcode1.5 gcc3.3). But "make check" fails: [...] PASS: node-test ** ERROR **: file option-test.c: line 399 (arg_test5): assertion failed: (retval) aborting... FAIL: option-test PASS: patterntest [...]
Could be fix for Bug #337304 missed the 2.12 branch?
This failure does not occur on 10.4. Based on Bug #337304, it looks like the problem is in the test itself and how it sets locale. OS X 10.4 made some improvements vs 10.3 in locale handling, so it's possible that the test failure is actually revealing an OS X 10.3 issue and not a glib2 problem.
I've got 10.3 (ppc) and 10.4 (x86 and ppc) test boxes, if you need me to test any patches.
The fix for 337304 should be in all current versions of glib, I believe.
