Reducing libstdc++ with mklibs is tricky, so only the unreduced lib can
be included into the boot image. C++ is controversial, because the
output is usually rather large.

I used it for some years with the tuxbox project. But it needs patches
to gcc.

Bug#559695: kfreebsd-8 - Incomplete licensing information

2009-12-06 Thread Bastian Blank
Package: kfreebsd-8
Version: 8.0-1
Severity: serious

The licensing information in the copyright file of the kfreebsd-8
package are incomplete and missleading. It refers to
/usr/share/common-licenses/BSD, which is a 3-clause license. Also it
lists licenses of sources that are not actually included in the source
package.

I found at least 4 different BSD-style licenses, one 2-clause, one
3-clause and two 4-clause licenses. Examples:
- xen/reboot.c: 4-clause with the following advertising clause:
This product includes software developed by Christian Limpach.
- nfsclient/bootp_subr.c: 4-clause with the following advertising
  clause:
This product includes software developed by the University of
California, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and its contributors.
- amd64/amd64/amd64_mem.c: 2-clause.
- dev/aic7xxx/ahc_isa.c: 3-clause; kind off I think.

Why do you think this is related to the use of mlock?  A quick check in
the source shows that an error in mlock is not fatal.  Also building on
Linux with a locked memory limit of 0 does not trigger this error.

But several lines below this warning in the build-log is the simple
statement:
| Build killed with signal TERM after 150 minutes of inactivity

So you found yourself a dead lock.  Did you ever try to run this on a
kfreebsd-* porter machine?  You completely forgot to actually mention
what you tried and what you observed yourself.

I would propose (c): understand the problem.

Anyway, I did that for you.  The problem lies within build/tap-driver,
aka the tool that executes the tests.  In some cases it misses EOF on
stderr of the executed test program, I'm however not sure why.

This misses a link to the build-log:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=gnome-keyring&arch=kfreebsd-i386&ver=3.12.0-2&stamp=1398611094

As this is a simple bug, this is off-topic on debian-release.

Please move d-i to an unfixed size filesystem.  Even freebsd have some

Sorry, not in this stage of the Jessie development.

But in the case of degraded RAID the system _is_ already broken.  How
does a non-event-driven solution work for it?
