[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello,

Trying to install automake-1.16 on Solaris 11.3 x86.
make check fails with

FAIL: t/lex-clean-cxx.sh
FAIL: t/lex-depend-cxx.sh


It seems to be caused by declaration of yylex ().
lex-clean-cxx.log & lex-depend-cxx.log are attached.


Tested with gcc 7.3.0, 

% ./configure
% make
% make check


Regards,

--- Kiyoshi

This is likely related to commit
826408a7f6ca4c39ff7b7ac9952c05f48110748f [1] which make those tests work
with Flex 2.6.4 and g++ 7.3.

If you know a good way to achieve a better compatibility than the
solution chosen by that commit, I would be interested.

Thanks for the report.

Hi - you have each reported Automake test failures on Solaris.

I've just pushed a fix from Bogdan (thanks Bogdan!) for some of these,
which (sometimes with other fixes already made) closes some bugs.
Bogdan explains the details of the latest:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=45205#13

Other problems remain and still need debugging, as Bogdan explains in:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=45205#16

If anyone has time and interest to try bootstrapping current automake,
run the test suite, and find what still fails and why, that would be
great. --thanks, karl.

Bugs closed (with fingers crossed): 15256 30612 34151 42393 44795 49755.
Bugs still open: 31126 45205 55073.
