Description Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2008-07-02 04:59:09 UTC
Hi,
the stride unit test fails on x86 (Linux and gnu/kfreebsd) since 0.3.14 at least.

See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=483352 and http://buildd.debian-ports.org/fetch.php?pkg=liboil&arch=kfreebsd-i386&ver=0.3.15-1&stamp=1214936456&file=log&as=raw for more information.

This doesn't seem to happen always but is reproducible easily, see the Debian bug.

The "failing 16 or 17 times in a row" is likely due to the random number generator being seeded with the current time -- the test is running about 16-17 times per second.
