Here is a piece of code from the test/stress.cxx file
// Check length of Postscript file
FILE *fp = fopen("stress_lhcb.ps","r");
char line[200];
Int_t nlines = 0;
Int_t nlinesGood = 8063;
while (fgets(line,200,fp)) {
nlines++;
}
fclose(fp);
delete c;
Bool_t OK = kTRUE;
if (nlines < nlinesGood-10 || nlines > nlinesGood+10) OK = kFALSE;
if (OK) printf("OK\n");
else {
printf("failed\n");
printf("%-8s nlines in stress_lhcb.ps file = %d\n"," ",nlines);
}>
It "failes" if the length of the postscript file is not 8063 +- (10) lines
Since yours reported 8075 - 8063 = 12 > 10 it complained.
to understand where is the extra lines came from you compare the
"right" file and "left" one with "diff" utility.
(I was told this happens under Windows only, but your message
says it could be under some UNIX too).
Hope this helps.
