Re: [htdig-dev] Failed tests on OS X Panther with make check

[Ted Stresen-R. <ted...@ma...>]

I did everything as sudo, first, because I know there are some=20
permission issues in the version that comes out of CVS (I believe it is=20=

formally known as the Head branch). When those tests failed, I did=20
chown -R tedsr:admin * while inside the htdig source dir and tried=20
again with using sudo, and from this last run is the report I sent=20
along.

I went ahead and did make make install and everything seems to have=20
gone just fine. I haven't manually run the tests in make check to see=20
if they still fail, but the make and installation completed without=20
errors and simple searches show that the system is installed and=20
running.

As a side note, I'm having generally very good experiences with=20
Panther. There are a few oddities but the new features are compelling=20
enough to make up for them, and a whole lot more. I basically updated=20
for the new Finder and Expos=E9 (in addition to the improved Windows=20
compatibility since I work in a Windows environment). I'm a happy=20
consumer at this point...
