| Subject: | still problems with test 11-inet6.t (IPv6 enabled but no connectivity) |
While preparing a package of Net-DNS 0.57 for the pkgsrc package
collection on a NetBSD 3.0 system (perl 5.8.7, IPv6 enabled but
without IPv6 connectivity, online tests disabled) I get the following
during "make test":
======================================
ok 1 - use Net::DNS;
#
# The libraries needed for IPv6 support have been found
# Now we establish if we can bind to ::1
ok 2 # skip online tests are not enabled
Can't call method "errorstring" on an undefined value at t/11-inet6.t
line 115.
ok 3 # skip online tests are not enabled
# Looks like you planned 11 tests but only ran 3.
# Looks like your test died just after 3.

*** Error code 255
======================================
With the first attached patch (patch-aa) all tests can finish but
the results of tests 6 and 7 (tcp6 _cannot_ succeed without an IPv6
connection) are still wrong because they rely on
"$res->nameservers($AAAA_address)" from tests 2-4 which were skipped
(online tests disabled). Due to this relationship, I think tests 6 and
7 should also be skipped if online tests are not enabled (see the second
patch, patch-ab).

Test returned status 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
DIED. FAILED test 6
======================================
With both patches applied, I get 10/11 test skipped when online tests
are disabled and the following correct results with online tests
enabled:
======================================
ok 1 - use Net::DNS;
#
# The libraries needed for IPv6 support have been found
# Now we establish if we can bind to ::1
#
#

# This is not an error in Net::DNS
# You can confirm this by trying 'ping6 2001:610:240:0:

#
ok 5 # skip No answer available to analyse (Send error: No route to

# You can safely ignore the following message:

3/11 skipped: various reasons
All tests successful, 3 subtests skipped.
