As Chorny has pointed out there is a buried dependency on Crypt::DH. This might explain the killed jobs on my smokers: [21:46] < nexus> Distribution: 'A/AM/AMD/Tapper-MCP-4.0.2.tar.gz' finished with status '9' [01:09] < nexus> Distribution: 'A/AM/AMD/Tapper-MCP-4.0.2.tar.gz' finished with status '9' [01:27] < fable> Distribution: 'A/AM/AMD/Tapper-MCP-4.0.2.tar.gz' finished with status '9' [11:15] < nexus> Distribution: 'A/AM/AMD/Tapper-MCP-4.0.2.tar.gz' finished with status '9' [13:46] < fremen64> Distribution: 'A/AM/AMD/Tapper-MCP-4.0.3.tar.gz' finished with status '9' '9' being the exit code of the smoke job, meaning the job was killed with -9 Adding AAAA::Crypt::DH as a prereq will ensure that either Math::BigInt::GMP or Math::BigInt::Pari are installed so that Crypt::DH will function with some sort of speed. All my smokeboxen have libgmp installed and AAAA::Crypt::DH favours Math::BigInt::GMP over Math::BigInt::Pari if the libgmp headers/libraries are available.
