Test errors in reutils #7
Description
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. make; make check
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The script reports:
PASS: reutils: make flags.
PASS: reutils: resubst compile.
PASS: reutils: basic substitution.
PASS: reutils: global substitution.
PASS: reutils: variable substitution.
PASS: reutils: multiple variable substitution.
FAIL: reutils: malformed variable substitution 3: expected "he${1o", got
"hellhe${1oo".
FAIL: test/reutils_test
So, it looks like the re is hanging onto previous results. Also, the
failing test is mis-numbered as '1' when it is really '3', but that isn't
particularily at issue.
Workaround:
The specific test case that fails is a test-bad-data test, and can be
safely commented out as it indicates that the re engine is broken in the
case when the re is broken.
