You were exactly right. I corrected the setting and was able to get memstat to compile and install perfectly this time! Maybe now I can learn what some of this means ;-) For the record, here is my current apt-build.conf --------------------------- build-dir = /var/cache/apt-build/build repository-dir = /var/cache/apt-build/repository Olevel = -O2 #mcpu = -mcpu=Medium mcpu = -mcpu=740 options = " " make_options = " " ---------------------------- The package-supplied setting of "Medium" makes no sense in any context, I think. I noticed some of the bugs filed at the apt-build bugtracker ask for things like automatic detection of the processor, and for supplying sensible default optimizations for whatever processor you choose. So obviously apt-build has a long way to go. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?which=pkg&data=apt-build&archive=no BTW I found some more updated information at http://www.debtoo.org/ though just like all the other places, the information is exclusively i386 oriented. The site includes an "apt-build howto," though strangely it's in .rtf format. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
