Priority: low
Bug ID: 83723
Assignee: mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: megadriver hardlinks problems
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: fabio....@libero.it
Hardware: All
Status: NEW
Version: git
Component: Mesa core
Product: Mesa
A couple of side effects for distribution packages since megadrivers and using
hardlinks:
1) hardlinks get copied as different files on packages, each one occupying the
same size, unless a trick is used to keep the hardlinks. In Debian and Ubuntu
the workaround is applied correctly
2) only one debug file is provided, ignoring the hardlinked files, see Debian
bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=755921
Workaround is simple (manually create symlinks), but not used currently.
No idea if there is a better approach (symlinks rather than hardlinks?), just
writing here to document it, otherwise this can be closed.
