Description

When gcc-debuginfo is installed, the unit tests fail because the ephemeral port cannot be determined for the broker.

After digging a little further, I determined that streams do not handle numeric data. For example, if I put the following line in the broker code:

std::cout << "string " << 45 << " string2" << std::endl;

the output seen on the console is:

string

The number and any following text is lost (probably due to a null-terminator being incorrectly inserted).

Note that this does not affect normal broker operation, nor does it affect the python system tests. It only affects the broker running in the unit test environment.
