build failure: sc_ucalc.test - cppunittester abort trap (core dumped)

Hi, I'm new here, and I'm driven here by desperation. I'm trying to build libreoffice-3.4.5.2 on FreeBSD and it is failing the testing stage. I'm running out of time for a client to pick up, so I need to fix this now and I need some pointers on how to figure out whats wrong here.

This is on a unit not on the network, so this output has been copied by hand:

Hi :frowning:
Sorry but the Devs list is probably a better place to ask this question.

Thanks. I had considered it, but thought I'd try here first. I'll try there...

Hi again
Here is a link to subscribe to the devs list
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
but also ask on the Bsd lists & forums as they might be able to help faster.  I think a lot of our devs are not really familiar with Bsd and probably are not used to being polite to people either.  A google-search found these threads but nothing wonderfully useful.  Still another bunch of places to ask ...

If you could give us a link to the answer when you get it that would be great but if you don't have time don't worry.

Did that.

Already there as of 2 days ago. No one really knows as I have had no bites.

I'm used to linux lists, I know what they're like :wink:

Me either. My results lists are exceedingly short... :frowning:

It may come to that...

I'll try. Or at least it'll be put somewhere where everyone can find it :slight_smile:

Hi :slight_smile:
Since it has been a couple of days and no responses have you tried posting a comment in the same thread to "bump the thread" to see if that generates any interest?

According to DistroWatch the official forum for FreeBsd is
http://forums.freebsd.org/
but there are a load of other websites listed on their page that might be worth having a quick glance through

Hi,

The dev list is definitely the place for such questions, or
alternatively, head on over to the developer's IRC channel.

You should be able to turn off unit testing with a autogen/config
switch. I don't remember now how that fits in with BSD building as I
haven't had one of those systems around for a while, stopped at FreeBSD
6, after getting progressively frustrated with build dependency failures
in the port repos ;-), oh and filling my disks and causing a system
crash without UFS telling me I was in danger of doing so :-/

Doesn't that mean the build wont be stable?If its breaking there must be a reason. And how would I do that?

Things have changed a lot since then... a _lot_ :slight_smile:

Thats probably a big change - ports are specifically administered by the maintainer of the specific port. Used to be handled on the list, and there are still some like that but most are being 'adopted'.

Haven't heard a lot of that for a long time. Linuxulator is basically stable, flash works, desktop usage improved greatly, and more.

Hi :slight_smile:
Don't worry about it too much but if you post in-line rather than at the top or bottom then please put an extra empty line like this one

between whatever you are replying to and your comment and do another one after your comment.  It makes it much easier to read.

On the other hand it can be good to help the list-dinosaurs to be ready to deal with whatever messed-up system people use.  So it can be quite good to be deliberately awkward so that noobs that just can't help themselves don't get publicly flogged instead of getting answers.

Welcome in btw.  It's good to have a Bsd person on the list.
Good luck and regards from

You can build with "make build" instead of simple "make". Then it does no unit tests. If that is ok, you can do "make check" for the unit tests.

Kind regards

Sounds enticing, will have to revisit it then and take a live distro for a spin :-)) - have disk space, will experiment :-()

Alex

I'll have to figure out how to do that on FBSD ports. I have to admit I thought it would be easier to come up with some debug procedures- it does seem to be as much of a black box as before. Maybe I'll try dig deeper...

Cheers

One more thing- I tried the dev lists but even though I'm subscribed my post got moderated! WTF! So apparently someone has to approve it before it gets posted- which it hasn't... :frowning:

Craziness...

Well I saw your post this morning, it was up there with the other fresh
posts...

Alex

Huh. I wonder why I never saw it? I've got everything else... :S

Weird...

Hi :slight_smile:
A good default to have is that you never see your own posts, just everyone elses (minus those you black-list)
