hausdorff regression test fails

[mloskot]

Running regression tests against PostGIS from current trunk (r4706) gives failure for the hausdorff test

hausdorff. failed (diff expected obtained: /tmp/pgis_reg_25454/test_44_diff)

and it looks it crashes the server

$ cat /tmp/pgis_reg_25454/test_44_diff

I did full rebuild of both, PostGIS and GEOS.

Environment:

• Linux 64-bit (Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala)
• GCC 4.4.1
• GEOS (version 3.2.0 from SVN trunk ​2710)
• libxml2 2.7.5

I wonder if this is related to #258 though Mark had fixed this and I believe he is running 64-bit so must have worked for him.

Can you check (ST_LineCrossingDirection) ​http://www.postgis.org/documentation/manual-svn/ST_LineCrossingDirection.html

Since that had similar issues too. I haven't tested against the latest GEOS trunk so that might be something else.

Updated info about my OS and libxml2

Fixed in trunk at r4743.

Using recent r4749, I've confirmed the fix works well.

Thank you Paul!
