Dear mips porters,
I need some advice on an FTBFS problem with package octave mapping on the
mips64el architecture. Here is the log for the failed build:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=octave-mapping&arch=mips64el&ver=1.4.3-1&stamp=1746884958&raw=0
It also FTBFS on riscv64, for the same reason: the unit tests for
degrees2dm and degrees2dms fail with this error:
***** assert (degrees2dm (NA), [NA NA]) !!!!! test failed ASSERT errors for: assert (degrees2dm (NA), [NA,NA])
Location | Observed | Expected | Reason
(1) NaN NA 'NA' mismatch
(2) NaN NA 'NA' mismatch
It seems to be a problem related to how floating point NA and NaN are
represented.
Strangely, I cannot reproduce this problem. I built the package manually
on a mips64el porterbox using schroot and everything worked fine.
We discussed a similar issue on the upstream bug tracking system for
Octave back in 2021: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?59830
One of the upstream authors seems to suggest that this problem is related
to cross-compiling.
Do you know if there is a way to work around this?
Best,
Rafael Laboissière
