On Linux I get this validate failure all the time. What should I do? I've trained myself to ignore it, but that seems wrong Simon
Unexpected failures:
../libraries/unix/tests/user001.run user001 [bad stdout] (normal)
It sounds like your machine may be misconfigured. The test attempts to lookup the entry in /etc/group corresponding to the process's group. However, it appears that such an entry doesn't exist. This would imply that your user doesn't have a valid group, which is quite odd. What does the `id` command say? Cheers, - Ben
