Thanks for the report. About test 80 in rtest5, note that it is a test which passed, although it was expected to fail (because documentation is expected to be not present unless using autotools).
About the tests in rtest16, it looks like the tolerance for numerical comparison could be increased for those tests. I'll try to take a look at it.

I have looked at rtest16 on a couple of different platforms, and I can't reproduce the errors. It's likely that's just a consequence of different C math libraries getting called. I'm not sure what to do about that.
Anyway as a practical matter, I guess the path forward for Alpine Linux requires patching rtest16 to increase the tolerance for the failed tests. (I can increase the tolerance in Git, but then that would be an unreleased patch until the next release, which would be Maxima 5.47, and there is no definite schedule for that.)

Hi, we are trying to package maxima for Alpine Linux. Unfortunately, running
make check
seems to cause some problems.I've now tried building maxima using
sbcl
,ecl
andgcl
(using GNU Autotools) but every time a couple of tests fail. I also set up an Alpine APKBUILD which builds maxima without GNU Autotools usingsbcl
. This results in less failed checks, but it still fails two tests:Unexpected error 1:
Unexpected error 2:
Overview:
The full build log (on x86_64) can be found on the alpine gitlab as well as the PR.
NOTE: the reason for not using autotools is that
make check
isn't verbose, so fetching the log is kind of complicated. Whereas this prints everything to the standard output.Attachments:
