Hello Debian 68k porters, I have successfully build the pari package on aranym in 1 hour 51 minutes, (debuild -b -B build), using distcc+crosscc+NFS.
The log is available here: <http://people.debian.org/~ballombe/misc/pari_2.3.1-2_m68k.build.nfs> This was fully successful this time. (hobbes take 8 hours 17 minutes including the time to install/remove the build-dependencies). My setup: 1) Same hardware as previously (Pentium 4 CPU 3.20GHz, 32bit mode) 2) custom aranym build from Debian source with flags --enable-fullmmu --enable-lilo --disable-realstop --enable-addressing=direct --enable-cxx-exceptions 3) /tmp is a tmpfs 4) build directory is NFS mounted from the host. 5) use of distcc+crosscc from the host. 6) host has 1Gb of RAM, aranym is set up with 256Mb of FastRAM Comments: 1) --disable-realstop fix a problem with distcc not waking up aranym when completing. 2) the log2() warning in the previous attempt was caused by an outdated gcc on the target system, probably caused by a network outage when doing the upgrade. 3) the warning "dpkg-genchanges: warning: package pari-doc in control file but not in files list" is actually a devscripts bug. 4) --enable-cxx-exceptions seems to make aranym really faster (or maybe it is the gentoo effect:)) 5) --enable-addressing=direct is required for more than 112Mb. Now if we want to go this route, we probably need to setup a system such that gcc-cross is automatically rebuild and uploaded to a repository each time a new gcc package is uploaded. I can provide the repository for the time being. Since my setup is working well now, I offer to attempt to build others packages you would like to try out.
