Hi,
I get a make test failure when trying to install PDL under ubuntu.
It looks as if this affects all case when make test is not run as user
"root" (on many linux systems this is now the default), because the
test checks
for the result of 'tilde expansion'.
Resolution: maybe remove this test?
Best
