I'm not sure what's going on but I get a lot of errors when building 'be' locally so I'm moving it to the end of the languages' list in the Makefile just in case it is breaking the build. It is quite clear to me that we have to go back to debacle's proposal 2 years ago [1]: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- On 2009-01-29 00:13, Simon Paillard wrote: > The question is less "how" than "is that a good idea, and how to detect > hidden failures". True. How about a script that tests the result (as last step of make)? Sth. like: - are all expected txt, html, and pdf files present? - are all files > 0 bytes? - do the pdf files have at least X pages? (I did sth. similar in the check target of the refcard Makefile, using pdfinfo.) - do the txt file have at least Y lines and - does file identify them as "UTF-8 Unicode ... text"? - some check of the html files, maybe using tidy Write PASS or FAIL at end of the log, so one would have only to look at the last line and check only in case of FAIL. Such test would even detect errors, if the build went well, but produced broken output. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- That would really help in finding languages that are the culprits of build failures...
