Re: Puzzled with sanity.sh

[Wu Yongwei]

Sorry but still the same phenomenon:

$ make check
make  check-local
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/adah/src/ccvs/src'
/bin/sh ./sanity.sh `pwd`/cvs
This test should produce no other output than this message, and a final
"OK".
(Note that the test can take an hour or more to run and periodically stops
for as long as one minute.  Do not assume there is a problem just because
nothing seems to happen for a long time.)
FAIL: version-1
make[1]: *** [localcheck] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/adah/src/ccvs/src'
make: *** [check-am] Error 2

Best regards,

Wu Yongwei

You want to do

   'make check'

or
   cd src
   ./sanity.sh `pwd`/cvs         # local check
   ./sanity.sh -r `pwd`/cvs         # remote check

That is, you need a full pathname tot he cvs executable not a relative
pathname.

./sanity.sh --help

The shell script itself is fairly well commented...

   Good luck,
