'make test' fails for julia-1.10.4 about julia HOT 7 CLOSED

Duplicate of #54234

from julia.

Wii there be an admission that there is a regression ?

from julia.

Regression compared to what? It's the same error as Julia v1.10.2. Also, it seems to be an upstream bug in openblas, not Julia specifically.

Regression compared to what?

In my opening statement I wrote:

It has to be noted that the problem was fixed in julia-1.11.0-beta1 - see #54234 (comment) , but it's back in julia-1.10.4 . See the uploaded 'make_test.log' file for complete details.
.

I.e. on the surface it looks like somebody switched back to old(er) OpenBLAS version, and if it's the case, it's a Julia developer (not an OpenBLAS one) who did the switching.

...

Have a look into https://github.com/user-attachments/files/15795640/make_test.log - to me it feels like there are failure of different than in julia-1.10.2 .

In case it wasn't clear, 1.10.4 comes after 1.10.2 (and 1.10.3), and before 1.11, so nothing was switched back, simply nothing was changed between 1.10.2 and 1.10.4.

from julia.

nothing was changed between 1.10.2 and 1.10.4

and this is exactly the problem. Because the fix for one problem was known, i.e. the so called backporting should have been done, but it wasn't.

Have you looked into https://github.com/user-attachments/files/15795640/make_test.log file ? If I'm not mistaken, as I wrote above, there are kinds of failures in julia-1.10.4 not present in julia-1.10.2 .

from julia.

and this is exactly the problem.

No, it it's not. This doesn't justify opening a new ticket for all bugfixes that haven't been backported, otherwise we'd have 10x more duplicate tickets in this repository.

Because the fix for one problem was known, i.e. the so called backporting should have been done, but it wasn't.

The "bugfix" consists in using a newer version of OpenBLAS, but backporting binary libraries is done only under certain conditions. Also, if you really care about using a newer version of OpenBLAS you can download from https://github.com/JuliaBinaryWrappers/OpenBLAS_jll.jl/releases the tarball for your platform and in Julia run

using LinearAlgebra.BLAS
BLAS.lbt_forward("/path/to/libopenblas64_.so"; clear=true)

Have you looked into user-attachments/files/15795640/make_test.log file ?

As a matter of fact, I did, yes.

If I'm not mistaken, as I wrote above, there are kinds of failures in julia-1.10.4 not present in julia-1.10.2 .

The only error I see is

The global RNG seed was 0x5b3303e31e5ffa7e7f2b95c8d10de0a.

which is exactly the same error as the one you reported in #54234 (comment). If you see something else, you haven't shared it.
