Description Steve Snyder 2007-07-12 02:10:50 UTC
Description of problem:

Self-test fails on elf test

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

glibc-2.6-4

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Build package: rpmbuild -bb --target i686 SPEC/glibc.spec
2. When build completes (successfully), examine file BUILD/glibc-20070515T2025/
build-i686-linuxnptl/check.log
3. Note failure of elf test, which ends the test suite
  
Actual results:

Elf test fails, causing end of elf-test.  Build continues, packaging binaries.

Expected results:

1. Self-tests should not fail.
2. Build should not complete if test(s) fails.

Additional info:

Seen on a fully-updated Fedora7 system.

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2007-07-12 11:43:17 UTC
That's caused by the Fedora specific malloc/mtrace.c changes, but it is really
not a bug.
