Package: libc6 Version: 2.7-16 Severity: normal
Ancient bug #177940 seems to have cropped up again, or something similar to it. I'm building owfs, which uses the AC_FUNC_MKTIME, and it's deciding that mktime doesn't work, after a timeout (a note in the test source says "This test makes some buggy mktime implementations loop. Give up after 60 seconds ..."). During those 60 seconds, the test program uses 100% cpu, and an strace attached to it is continuously stat'ing /etc/localtime. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26.3-1 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libc6 depends on: ii libgcc1 1:4.3.2-1 GCC support library libc6 recommends no packages.
