Description of problem: When updating arpack to 3.9.0, I run the builds of all dependent packages and saw no failed builds. However, it appears that failed tests in %check do not abort the build, so a regression (bug 2241361) went unnoticed, because I had little reason to browse through the build logs of successful builds. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): octave-8.3.0-1.fc40 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Rebuild octave against arpack-3.9.0. Actual results: sparse/eigs.m .................................................. pass 206/207 REGRESSION 1 Expected results: Failed build due to the above or successful test pass: sparse/eigs.m .................................................. pass 207/207
Later in the output there is: >>>>> processing /builddir/build/BUILD/octave-8.3.0/scripts/sparse/eigs.m ***** testif HAVE_ARPACK <*57196> x = ones (10, 10); z = complex (x, x); A = [sparse(10,10), z; z', sparse(10,10)]; d = eigs (A); assert (isreal (d)); [~, d] = eigs (A); assert (isreal (d)); !!!!! regression: https://octave.org/testfailure/?57196 eigs: error in znaupd: That link takes you to https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?57196 - I can't completely follow the discussion but it seems that there has been some issues with arpack in the past that led octave to not flag this as a failure. If you want to pursue this further I suggest doing so upstream.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 40 development cycle. Changing version to 40.
This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 40 is nearing its end of life. Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 40 on 2025-05-13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a 'version' of '40'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora Linux 40 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version prior to this bug being closed.
It looks like current builds for F40+ pass this test.
