[Bug-wget] [bug-wget] Unable to execute the Test Suite

[Darshit Shah]

Hi all,


I was trying to run the test suite on Wget, but it keeps failing due to the
new submodule. At first I thought the issue was probably with the
parallel-wget branch, so I switched to master. Yet the same problem. Just
as a control test, I created a new clone of the repository and I am still
facing the same problem.

The error output is:

echo 1.15.6-d682 > .version-t && mv .version-t .version
if test -d ./.git                               \
        && git --version >/dev/null 2>&1; then                  \
  cd . &&                                               \
  git submodule --quiet foreach                                 \
      test '"$(git rev-parse "$sha1")"'                 \
      = '"$(git merge-base origin "$sha1")"'                    \
    || { echo 'maint.mk: found non-public submodule commit' >&2;        \
         exit 1; };                                             \
else                                                            \
  : ;                                                           \
fi
Stopping at 'gnulib'; script returned non-zero status.
maint.mk: found non-public submodule commit

This happens only when running `make check` and not when trying to
otherwise compile from source.

Anyone know the reasons for this?
