[Devil-linux-develop] Problems with Bison Test on Fedora Core 1

[William G. <dl-...@gm...>]

All,
 
Given that I don't have enough pain in my life :) , I am trying to learn how to build Devil Linux yet again.  I have had problems in the past and the production code timeline caught up with my needs and I haven't had to worry about this for some time.  Now, I would like to be able to run some scripts on my DL fireall that require some Perl Modules not in the current build.  So, I thought I would give building a try again.  But alas, like the last time, I am having problems.
 
A word about my environment before I continue, I am trying to build DL using a fully updated version of Fedora Core 1.  I don't know if this is a supported build environment or not.  In searching the discussion list, I can find no references to anyone using Fedora as a development environment, but that is my Linux du jour at this point.
 
I have downloaded the lfssystem 1.0+ as well as both the CVS current sources and the 1.0.5 sources.  Both have the same problem.  When I issue the make build, bison builds without error.  However, when the bison tests execute, all test starting with test 4 fail.  Worse yet, the testsuite continues until finally the testsuite is aborted by the OS because it has exhausted all memory (512 MB Real with another 1024 MB virtual).  
 
When I first had the problem with the CVS version, I thought that may this was a bug in the current CVS code.  So, I deleted everything and decided I would get 1.0.5 working first.  After update with 1.0.5, I ran into the same problem.
 
So almight Devil Linux Developers, please have pity on me and tell what I need to do to fix this;)
 
Thanks in advance,
 
William
