Re: Compiler runs out of memory when building a package

[Dima Kogan]

Thanks Johannes and Loong Jin.

Neither of the suggestions were sufficient on their own, but together I
think it's working. There are a few other issues that are blocking it
now, but I want to say that I'm past this one.

Thanks!

I ran into the same problem with my package vcmi. The fix I've been using was
to add this to my d/rules:

export DEB_CXXFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND+=--param ggc-min-expand=5

https://sources.debian.org/src/vcmi/1.1.0%2Bdfsg-1/debian/rules/#L20

Thanks!

cheers, josch

Hi,

We had a similar build failure in slic3r-prusa, and the way we fixed it
was to reduce debug symbols on 32-bit architectures, and disable it on
mips + mipsel.

See [1], [2] and [3] for what was done. Maybe you can try adding those
build flags to gtsam.
