[LTP] Make install failed: unzip test install hardlinks a file to /tmp/...

[Patricia G. <go...@us...>]

Hi All,

I'm not aware of a requirement that I run the LTP testsuite from the same 
filesystem as /tmp.  So, I just thought I'd pass along a failure I ran into 
when 'make install'ing the latest ltp (ltp-20030306). Looking at the testcase, 
I don't see why switching it to a symlink should cause any problems.

make[3]: Entering directory `/bench/LTP/ltp-20030306/testcases/commands/unzip'
ln -f unzip_tests.sh ../../bin/unzip_tests.sh
ln -f tst_unzip_file.zip ../../bin/tst_unzip_file.zip
ln -f tst_unzip_file.zip /tmp/tst_unzip_file.zip
ln: creating hard link `/tmp/tst_unzip_file.zip' to `tst_unzip_file.zip': 
Invalid cross-device link
make[3]: *** [install] Error 1

Thanks,
