Checking build errors



Dear list,

With the help of the Debian-med team I have created the probabel package
for Debian [1]. After uploading I noticed in the buildd logs that the
package fails to build on several architectures (e.g. mips and powerpc).
Looking at the build log [2] I see that the package compiles, but that
several checks in 'make check' fail. I also see which ones:

make  check-TESTS
make[3]: Entering directory `/«PKGBUILDDIR»/checks'
make[4]: Entering directory `/«PKGBUILDDIR»/checks'
PASS: check_probabel_chunk.sh
PASS: check_dose_input.sh
FAIL: test_qt.sh
FAIL: test_mms.sh
FAIL: test_bt.sh
FAIL: test_cox.sh
make[5]: Entering directory `/«PKGBUILDDIR»/checks'
make[5]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[5]: Leaving directory `/«PKGBUILDDIR»/checks'
make[4]: *** [test-suite.log] Error 1
============================================================================
Testsuite summary for ProbABEL 0.4.2
============================================================================
# TOTAL: 6
# PASS:  2
# SKIP:  0
# XFAIL: 0
# FAIL:  4
# XPASS: 0
# ERROR: 0
============================================================================
See checks/test-suite.log
Please report to genabel-devel@r-forge.wu-wien.ac.at
============================================================================


What I can't see is their exact error messages. This is because automake
by default runs tests in parallel and sends the output of the individual
tests to a file called test-suite.log. Is there a way to get access to
that file on the build machine?
Or is there another way to find out why the checks fail (short of
uploading a package where I run the tests serially and send output to
the screen)?

Please CC me in any replies as I'm not subscribed to this list.


Thanks a lot,

Lennart.
