Re: fwts is hanging at the "Check _CRS" stage.

 

Hi Chris, 

I sanity checked this with a clean install, installed fwts from
ppa:firmware-testing-team/ppa-fwts-stable and got:

dpkg -l fwts
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
|
Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name           Version        Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
ii  fwts           0.22.10~m      FirmWare Test Suite
ubuntu@ubuntu-MM061:~$ fwts -v
fwts, Version V0.22.10, Thu Mar 24 09:52:06 GMT 2011

Maybe you haven't picked up the latest libfwts.so.1 - this contains the
core fwts support library and this maybe an older version.

Can you try the following:

strings /usr/lib/libfwts.so.1 | grep "^V0.22"

You should get:
V0.22.10

Maybe removing and re-installing may help. Not sure why you have this
problem.
