[libvirt] Test failures building libvirt 0.8.5 rpm on EL5

I thought I'd take a look at updating my libvirt stack on EL5.5. Building the Fedora Rawhide 0.8.5 rpm in mock yields: make check-TESTS make[2]: Entering directory `/builddir/build/BUILD/libvirt-0.8.5/tests' TEST: virshtest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 40 !!!!!!! 47 FAIL FAIL: virshtest ...

That one may just reflect bugs in libxml2 Relax-NG support that have been fixed in the last few years (and not backported to RHEL-5 because it's not critical) Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ daniel@veillard.com | Rpmfind RPM search engine http://rpmfind.net/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

I can confirm that the interfaceschematest failures are expected on RHEL 5. However, the virshtest failures didn't happen for me; can you run: make -C tests TESTS=virshtest VIR_TEST_DEBUG=1 to try and help figure out what might be the cause on your system? -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
