OpenVMS Compile seems complete, How to run tests?

[John E. Malmberg]

I have what appears to be a mostly successful build.

That is 1082 object files are created and a libgnu.a is created.

The make is failing in gltests. OpenVMS does not have a concept of
rpaths, so there should not be anything for it to do for rpaths.

Also, I can not run git on VMS.

Are there some git commands that can be run on the Fedora 25 system that
is running the gnulib-tool command?

The resulting ${GNU_MIRRORS} directory is NFS mounted on OpenVMS.


./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --with-tests \
--dir=${GNU_MIRRORS}/gnulib/gnulib


On OpenVMS, make check step ends with:

bash-4.3$ make am__configure_deps="" -k check
...

Feel free to invoke gnulib-tool with option --avoid=havelib-tests .

Also, to reduce the configure time by 50%, use option --single-configure.
