resource fork tests need ..namedfork under 10.7 #2

Closed jlillibridge closed 12 years ago

jlillibridge commented 13 years ago

Hello,

I've been using your excellent bbouncer to confirm that our Fink version of rsync (3.0.8) is 100% successful in your tests. I just upgraded to 10.7 Lion, and found that the two tests containing resource forks (30 & 99) failed to create the needed test files. I tracked it down to the old 'short form': file/rsrc, no longer being supported in 10.7 (it still was in 10.6 SL). I modified the two test scripts to use "..namedfork/rsrc" everywhere, and the tests now succeed under Lion. I'd be happy to provide the two patch files, and the copier.d file for Fink rsync, if that would be helpful.

Thanks, John

Hi John,

Sounds good, go ahead and send the patches or a github pull request and I'll integrate them.

Thanks for helping out! -Nathan

Hi Nathan,

Thanks for the quick reply, and I'm happy to be able to help in just a small way. I don't want to mess things up via github (and only enrolled so I could contact you), so will attach the patches and rsync-fink copier below for you to integrate as you please. It's been very helpful to have bbouncer, and it amazes me that NONE of the Apple copiers are 100% successful. However, rsync (if carefully patched and compiled) passes with flying colors! Thanks to Mike Bombich for making me aware of your very useful utility.

Cheers, John

Hey John,

Why don't you go ahead and email that patch to me at n8gray /at/ n8gray \dot\ org.

Hi Andy,

This should be fixed. I just tried it out on my own Lion machine and didn't see any problems. You should verify that you've got the most recent version (3bd61f60fa4ac0a876f8721f904aac74d6930b56).

Cheers, -n8

Hi Nathan and John

I am still getting the error on 30 and 99 using the master branch.  Is there something more I am missing or is still still an ongoing issue?

Thanks.
