Mpich2 build log test suite results
Hi!
The build process for Mpich2 includes the running of a test suite. E.g. looking
at the latest build log for mpich2 on i386, I see there are some tests that are
not completed successfully.
Are these test suite errors checked when determining if a build was successul or
not, each time a new build is done for each architecture?
I guess my real question is: how certain can I be that the Debian supplied
Mpich2 will work correctly? Should I investigate myself each of these test suite
errors to determine if my use of Mpich2 will be affected or not, or can I assume
that all the test suite errors are inconsequensial and already known to the
mpich2 development team?
Here is a link to the build log in question:
https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=mpich2;ver=1.3.2-1;arch=i386;stamp=1297211498
If you are interested in looking at some of the test suite errors, search for
the strings:
"MPI Pack code is too slow"
"Error in Publish_name"
"Fatal error in MPI_Publish_name"
Best regards
