[darcs-devel] [issue2302] darcs-test "canonicalizePath" path diagnostic should report the file it was testing.

Mark Stosberg <mark at summersault.com> added the comment:

I discovered in my case that the problem had nothing to with the format 
of the test file, as I assumed... it was having trouble having the 
related darcs binary to use. I could workaround it like this:

  darcs-test --darcs=/home/mark/bin/darcs -t issue2271-disable-patch-
index.sh

It actually appears that the code in harness/test.sh intends to return a 
better diagnostic if darcs can't be found:

  "No darcs specified or found nearby. Perhaps --darcs 
`pwd`/dist/build/darcs/darcs"

However, it appears than an uncaught exception is being thrown before 
the code can get that far.
