Yes, I'll second that. It makes no sense at all to try to have the package predict how much memory it will need for the build; this amount of memory will be different depending on the architecture, the exact versions of build-dependencies that are in use, and a gazillion other unpredictable variables. The only person able to figure out which values are sane and which values aren't is the person running the build, if only by trial and error. The best anyone else can do is an educated guess, which is not something I would like in my packages. -- <Lo-lan-do> Home is where you have to wash the dishes. -- #debian-devel, Freenode, 2004-09-22 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
