build of dovecot 2.2.6 fails on 32-bit big endian arches (ppc, s390) because there is a segfault in the test suite, same error happened when I tried a rebuild of Fedora srpm in RHEL 7 buildroot. from build.log ... http url parse/create [6] ............................................ : ok http url parse/create [7]: parse http://www.example.com/%23shared/news : ok http url parse/create [7]: create http://www.example.com/%23shared/news : ok http url parse/create [7] ............................................ : ok http url parse/create [8]: parse http://www.example.com/query.php?name=Hendrik%20Visser : ok http url parse/create [8]: create http://www.example.com/query.php?name=Hendrik%20Visser : ok http url parse/create [8] ............................................ : ok http url parse/create [9]: parse http://www.example.com/network.html#IMAP%20Server : ok http url parse/create [9]: create http://www.example.com/network.html#IMAP%20Server : ok http url parse/create [9] ............................................ : ok 0 / 578 tests failed /bin/sh: line 1: 12328 Segmentation fault (core dumped) ./$bin make[2]: Leaving directory `/builddir/build/BUILD/dovecot-2.2.6/src/lib-http' make[2]: *** [check-test] Error 1 make[1]: *** [check-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/builddir/build/BUILD/dovecot-2.2.6/src' full logs available at http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1460140 http://s390.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1238050 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dovecot-2.2.6-1.fc{19,20}
64-bit builds (s390x, ppc64) are OK
and for the record dovecot-2.2.5-2.fc20 builds fine in F-20 s390 buildroot
test-http-header-parser and test-http-response-parser fail with segfault on init, test-http-request-parser has 2 failing tests, with these exception all other tests are passed
not a problem starting with 2.2.7, so closing
