Problem Summary | LSB.fhs/root/bin/bin-tc 37 checks for stdout output incorrectly |
Problem Text | The csh test checks for stdout output. In some cases stdout output from csh startup is normal. This includes emitting an escape sequence to ensure that the terminal is in Unicode mode. This escape sequence is not emitted if stdout is not a tty, so one could simply change the line: lsb_test_exec /bin/csh tfile >out.stdout 2>out.stderr to: lsb_test_exec /bin/csh tfile >out.stdout 2>out.stderr < /dev/null |

Review Recommendation | Test Suite Deficiency (TSD) |
Review Response | It is agreed that this test for FHS compliance, goes beyond what is required, that is it should only be testing for whether the csh is executable and not look at the standard output. It appears to be beyond the scope of the specification for us to consider whether the implementation behavior is correct or otherwise, so we recommend a TSD based on the fact that the test exceeds the FHS requirements. |
