Are we likely to encounter trouble down the line on powerpc if we don't resolve this? I have no idea, honestly, so I'm asking because I just don't know. I looked at the rules file you linked. Are you sure it disables the test for powerpc? It reads: with_check :=3D yes ifneq (,$(findstring nocheck,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS))) # override buildd admins to run the testsuite anyway ... ifeq (,$(filter $(DEB_HOST_ARCH), m68k powerpc sh4 sparc64)) with_check :=3D disabled through DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS endif endif #with_check :=3D disabled for this upload I'm not sure what the values for DEB_HOST_ARCH or DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS would be here. However, it seems to be setting with_check to disabled if and only if (1) nocheck shows up in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS and (2) DEB_HOST_ARCH is not one of m68k, powerpc, sh4, or sparc64. In other words, it seems to enable the tests unless nocheck is in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS, in which case it STILL enables the tests provided that DEB_HOST_ARCH is one of m68k, powerpc, sh4, or sparc64. I'm not very familiar with Debian rules files, so perhaps I'm mistaken. However, I think this means that when DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS doesn't contain "nocheck" (presumably it doesn't usually?), the tests will be run for every platform. In any case, reporting this upstream seems like the right thing to do. > I like the way you've done it (and the comment). The fewer places with > copy/pasted code the better.

I think the comment is honestly more than necessary, but if you find it helpful, perhaps someone in the future might, too. It describes a possibly surprising behavior of substitute-keyword-arguments that can happen any time you invoke it. I just wanted to call it out specifically for the purpose of this patch review. =2D-=20 Chris --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJJBAEBCAAzFiEEy/WXVcvn5+/vGD+x3UCaFdgiRp0FAmCBBZUVHGNtbWFydXNp Y2hAZ21haWwuY29tAAoJEN1AmhXYIkadyccQAI8McLVRtY3Jbo6X58i9neSLPGCB frCpelrfalEVKn5OeetDDAMQWLfMi7ZtdxMkVU1nRNM9uvnxGw94rWreehVzuQ0s H8Zw7A/TpiRjHTU5n7SvQ010EhhLcRvfYfz4xvpw8lnK/njYBf23U3XLKNI6eWua tgI9hy4lwmhYCCh9+tRkaivqnC0ZO0q6mvDS7gpXPXhq/RPosh0zNSxHYXNKFFcu K6JZGsE/919k03xLl3KdiLP0vS06QIlwYv5XdjQFDBHCXo+H3hR0mmE7sNdn4iTy VrJrKDaVwpyv7Y6BYaLorpEhVQiUWlOijqQun3OgXpjq4l3IDFpBe+wvk93enA8s YA7/TclxUKa6zm29j/eiJEIux9idSLij95d2hG1r71q/yVbMvDt0UZA0PyhJPw5j PUMyD/yFRmq7HX6/YxN3GAOnzNJJiyYhEz3kr6fQatWabL98oCdHiuDUJIILbuIN F558gxzDmJZEC3U49gb/xfiCoktQFl31f/2vZj1PduuXbJQZVaTeBxAYeO3yhi8M 12EVNRS0wvDG4dtMWZZXBRWGRiMFVs3jNFPeKmtx2AC/bTDWDyFQxIX9JXbpAKGu /bWBc5bEIKbm1X89E5MasM1WcPCA5+zi7ViW0bx5B+FA0pj08zgpwA6vDFHEgNYN /2EYuVlCs9j9y/n5 =XvLO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
