I will report a bug with Red > Hat and see what they think... I don't think it's okay to require gtk2 just for the gceph that nobody uses...That at least should be an easy choice to kick out if necessary. tcmalloc is harder; we should get one of our lab users to submit a ticket for that. If necessary I believe google-perftools makes it pretty easy to build tcmalloc-minimal, which includes only the memory allocator -- we'd have to adjust our machinery a bit so the heap checker hooks are separate from the detection of tcmalloc but it'd be doable, and unlike the other config bits wouldn't fundamentally change non-dev behaviors.
libatomic-ops is separate and while Lazslo has disabled that on armel for the moment I believe I will be able to get that fixed up pretty soon (just need to check up on my QEMU instance once I get in and handle the autobuild bits). -Greg -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
