No, there's definitely something not quite right with the pthread stuff when running an SMP kernel on Alpha. It works fine with a UP kernel but problems are seen when running the SMP kernel. I see that the failed build: > Upgraded to bdwgc to 7.2d, gauche had FTBFS on alpha.

Probably a fluke. I've seen the pthreads problem hit builds of a number of packages; they always succeed if built while running a UP kernel. I guess I could put those packages having pthread failures into Imago's do not take for build list so that they are always built by the buildd Debian-alpha2 which is running a UP kernel. However, we really should track down the real problem in pthreads... Cheers Michael. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
