Hi Sven,
Since very recently, I see a weird build failure for ncurses. I guess
that it is related to Ben's make-dfsg upload, but I cannot tell for sure
yet. Unfortunately, I lost the relevant build logs, but let me try to
give you as much data as I still have.
Thus far, I've seen the failure twice. The linker complains about a
truncated libmenuw.so. Presumably it happens during the objdir-test
build and linking libmenuw.so appears to happen concurrently.
Settings that reproduced the issue:
* cross build for m68k
* DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="nocheck noddebs parallel=9"
* DEB_BUILD_PROFILES=nobiarch (shouldn't matter for m68k)
* Everything on tmpfs.
* SCHED_BATCH
If I set parallel=1 in the very same (rebootstrap) setting, I cannot
reproduce it. Since jenkins.d.n sets parallel=1, you cannot see it there
at all.
I then tried reproducing it outside rebootstrap using sbuild, but no
matter what I tried, I couldn't reproduce it there. Turning parallel up
or down didn't help, but I don't know how reliable the issue is.
During my testing, I once ran into a native, parallel build that hung.
In the hung state, there were two make processes each consuming CPU
indefinitely. Attaching to them with strace indicated that they weren't
doing any syscalls.
I somewhat suspect that there is no failure on ncurses' side, but the
make-dfsg side is broken, but I cannot prove that suspicion.
So what can I do? I think documenting the symptoms with this bug is
vaguely useful. I suggest leaving the bug open for maybe two weeks to
accumulate more detail (if any). If it turns out that nobody else can
reproduce parallel build failures, the bug should be closed.
Hope this vague report helps. If not, please do close it.
Helmut
