Description

While building lighttpd for our distribution, Adélie Linux, I have seen the following output in the test suite on PowerPC 32-bit (MPC7440) and 64-bit (970FX):

Looking at the lighttpd.error.log in the tmp directory, I see:

Of course, some of these are expected, but some should succeed.

I additionally had one of our developers test on his PowerPC FreeBSD computer, and the same result was found there. Since the tests pass on x86 and x86_64, it seems to be an endianness issue, but I have not yet had the chance to test on SPARC yet to confirm my suspicion.

Relevant information from the PowerPC 64-bit builder follows.

Would you please test with that patch? Also, I presume you're building lighttpd 1.4.48, but you did not specify. Please include that information in all bug reports.

I'm so sorry, it was 1.4.48. I can confirm the patch attached to #2848 fixes this; you can close it now. Thank you so much!
