Looks like the libpipeline testsuite completely fails to compile with this version of check. The error is:

In file included from common.h:3,
                 from argstr.c:28:
argstr.c: In function 'test_argstr_trivial_fn':
argstr.c:40:2: error: too few arguments to function '_ck_assert_failed'
   40 |  fail_unless (!strcmp (cmd->name, "/bin/simple"));
      |  ^~~~~~~~~~~
/usr/include/check.h:502:27: note: declared here
  502 | CK_DLL_EXP void CK_EXPORT _ck_assert_failed(const char *file, int line,
      |                           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Note that there are lots of similar errors, all involving fail_unless and _ck_assert_failed, the only thing changing being the .c file name. This complicated sed (maybe it can be simplified), allows the tests to build and pass (apply the sed in libpipeline):

sed -i '/\(fail_unless\|fail_if\) (\([^,]*([^)]*)[^,]*\|\[^,]*\));/s/);/,0);/' tests/*.c

FWIIW, there is a bug report for the pipeline tests issue now: ​https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?58883.

I've already committed a patch:

​http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/downloads/libpipeline/libpipeline-1.5.2-check_fixes-1.patch

It will be in my next commit, but I'm still waiting for glibc-2.32 which is overdue.

If upstream releases a new version, we can drop it.

Upstream has published a fix: ​https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/libpipeline.git/commit/?id=1be57f95c30cbaa6f64ae11a6d952fe4633e29f2 I've taken this for a second version of the patch: ​http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/patches/downloads/libpipeline/libpipeline-1.5.2-check_fixes-2.patch
