6636	CVS-1.11.23: comment out test suite	Fernando de Oliveira	Fernando de Oliveira	"Test suit fails at basicb-21, less than 1 SBU from start. It is supposed to run for over one hour.

I am using --with-rsh=ssh.

This can be fixed by

[https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/plain/trunk/cvs-1.11.23-sanity.patch?h=packages/cvs]

Unfortunately, again, after a loooong time, it hangs for ate least two reasons.

It tries to do an ssh connection to 127.0.0.1.

First, I was in one terminal, following ''check.log'', because during the test no message goes to the console and didn't notice, when the standard ssh trust question appeared in the other terminal. After ''yes'', message was the expected ''broken pipe''.

Second, it started asking my password and repeated about 10 times, and I stopped the test.

One more problem is that the sed expression


{{{
's/g=rw,o=r$/g=r,o=r/'
}}}

does nothing.

I replaced by

{{{
's/g=rw,o=rw/g=r,o=r/'
}}}

but have no idea if it is correct. Perhaps that is the reason for the hung up.

Perhaps, the switches discussed for the tests and in Optional dependencies:

{{{
--with-editor=<desired text editor>

--with-rsh=ssh or empty (?)
}}}

should be mentioned in ''Command Explanations''.

Also the text explaining the tests problems could be improved.

I think this is all.

Please, I would really prefer somebody else to confirm or unconfirm the problems and fix the issues."	defect	closed	normal	7.8	BOOK	SVN	medium	fixed
