findutils 4.4.2 is now being packaged under GAR, instead of manually as
it was before.<br>
<br>
<pre><a href="http://mirror.opencsw.org/experimental.html#skayser">http://mirror.opencsw.org/experimental.html#gmarler</a>
pkgutil -t <a
href="http://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw/experimental/skayser">http://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw/experimental/gmarler</a> -i findutils
</pre>
<br>
At present, testing is disabled, since 12 tests in the findutils suite,
and it appears that they were never successful in the manually built
package either.<br>
<br>
The failed tests are explicitly documented in the Makefile, if they are
deemed important enough to fix. At least 4 of them appear to be simple
permissioning errors in the testing area setup by findutils own
scripts. The remaining failures have to do with the iregex routines
pulled in from the built-in regex library apparently extracted from
some release of GNU libc.<br>
<br>
The following minor changes were made:<br>
- Binaries are still 32-bit, but generated for extra ISAs
sparcv8plus+vis and pentium_pro<br>
- Testing is currently disabled, but majority of tests pass<br>
<br>
Any testing would be appreciated.<br>
