Is it possible to ensure that neither voltaire nor malo build the mlton
package? I've heard that buildds can list certain packages that they should
not build. I intend to start uploading new mlton versions and those machines
fail to build it (too low memory). praetorius has enough (>1 GB). Yes, the
The package MLton, which is normally uploaded to i386, failed
to build on PowerPC again [1]. The reason is because the buildd
tried to build it on voltaire. The package builds fine on malo [2],
because malo has sufficient RAM (>=512M). I tried earlier [3] to
get voltaire more RAM, and had arranged
taire benefits all debian PowerPC builds.
Futhermore, if SML ever takes off, there will be several packages to build.

sary.
I think there is always a tension between what a program needs and what it
provides. I had hoped to show that for ppc, MLton is desirable. =)

is needed...
Well, I'm in contact with the developers of MLton, and they seem to think
this is an inherent disadvantage of whole-program optimization. Their (valid
imo) argument is that requiring a powerful build machine is better than
requiring a powerful machine to run the resulting binary.
