[Bashdb-devel] make check fails (OS X)

[Louis M. <lm...@lo...>]

Hello,
My make check fails (23 out of 25 tests) when trying to build
bashdb-3.1-0.08.
I've succesfully installed it on debian stable but OS X (10.4) seems
reluctant to allow me the bliss of debugging in emacs...

A bit of background:
- I have installed readline 5.2, bash 3.2 and emacs 22.1 from source in
/usr/local/ (but I have started with $EMACS undefined to see if it would
compile with the default emacs 21 in /usr/bin/emacs, changing $EMACS to
/usr/local/bin/emacs doesn't seems to make any difference anyway, make
check still fails).

- Last 10 lines of make-check.log (2619 more available if needed):
+Breakpoint 1 hit (1 times).
+(dbg-test1.sh:17):
+17:    fn3() {
+ 0 (echo "x is $x, ? is $?"): x is 29, ? is 0
++ quit
FAIL: run-watch2
===================================================
23 of 25 tests failed
Please report to bas...@li...
===================================================

Any help much appreciated...

Louis

I don't see  enough information on the failure to give anything but general
suggestions. The most obvious one is to pay attention to warnings and
messages that appear when you run "configure"  "make" and of course "make
test".

>From the output below I see that one of the test programs that failed is
called run-watch2. It should be located in a directory called "test". Run
that single program (run-watch2) from the directory it is located in. The
idea of that test program and others is to run a sequence of debuggers
commands and compare the output against known good output.

Good luck!

This message
  bashdb: cannot read .  Perhaps bashdb is installed wrong.

means bashdb can't  read the directory where it thinks bashdb is
(temporarily) installed. The -L option allows one to indicate where this
directory is. See around line 209 of the bashdb script.  I'll change the
wording on this error message to try to be more clear.

So in essence all of the tests are failing.. Sometimes this happens when the
"build" directory location is set incorrectly. There's lots of autotools
configuration magic that's supposed to make that work, but how to use
autoconf/automake has always been a great mystery to me.  In this regard I
generally use the Make Debugger/tracer (remake) that I wrote to help me
figure out what's going on, e.g. why the makefile thinks "." is the build
directory, etc.
