[Bug 1439716] Re: ntfs_test fails on build

[Jan de Haan]

Hi Mathieu,

     according to the snippet below, the test is performed in case
mkfs.ntfs is installed, which is part of the package ntfs-3g.

Sincerely,

Jan.

me at mylaptop:/usr/src/grub2-2.02~beta2/debian >more ../obj/grub-pc/ntfs_test
#!/bin/sh

set -e

if [ "x$EUID" = "x" ] ; then
  EUID=`id -u`
fi

if [ "$EUID" != 0 ] ; then
   exit 77
fi

if ! which mkfs.ntfs >/dev/null 2>&1; then
   echo "mkfs.ntfs not installed; cannot test ntfs."
   exit 77
fi

"./grub-fs-tester" ntfs
"./grub-fs-tester" ntfscomp

Title:
  ntfs_test fails on build

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Building grub2 from source with

     sudo debian/rules binary

  fails on my up to date trusty tahr (14.04.2) system.

  As far as I can determine deinstalling ntfs-3g creates a workaround.

  Log file of the failed build attached.
