test suite hangs when building current zsh with mock

test suite hangs when building current zsh with mock

[Tim Richert]

Hi,

I discovered that the test suite of zsh hangs when you try to build zsh 
with mock.

First i thought it might be a problem with my spec file or s.th. but 
building the rpm without mock works just fine...

So i suspected mock to be the source of the problem.
I talked to the guys in #fedora-devel and we started a thread on the 
fedora-buildsys-list.

The builders confirmed that it is a problem with the tty allocation of 
mock but also said that it's kind of lack within the test suite of zsh.

So i wanted to inform you about the thread on that list, perhaps you 
will adjust the test suite accordingly.

If not, i apologize for the noise...

The thread on the buildsys list can be found here:

Greets,
Tim

If we're going to look at this, somebody will have to send a detailed bug
report to this list.
