Severity: important
Tags: patch

Usertags: alpha
Justification: fails to build from source but built in the past
Condor FTBFS on Alpha due to the missing getpid and getppid syscalls. Build
log is at:
http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=condor&arch=alpha&ver=8.0.5%7Edfsg.1-1&stamp=1389314332
This bug was once reported as bug #685892, was fixed, but has now reappeared
again presumably due to changes upstream has made in the relevant section of
code.
I attach an updated alpha-fix-getpid.patch patch that now applies cleanly and
fixes the failure to build.
Cheers
Michael
