Looks like there maybe are yet unpublished patches needed to get webkitgtk+ to build properly. (I have not tried to build webkitgtk+ again due to disk and memory space limitations.) Hoping for some luck with coreutils and ruby1.9.1 too, which both hangs during the tests with the latest gnumach (2011-10-10). irc 2011-10-03: 10:48:45< gnu_srs> slpz: Did you succeed to build webkitgtk+ with the "Sync pager before clearing MAY_CACHE flag patch" and/or with any of your other patches? 10:58:24< slpz> gnu_srs: That patch is convenient, but not critical. I think the only patch that is really needed is the one for "mach_msg fails to copy out-of-line data when length >= 512MB" and perhaps the one which modifies external pageout (I haven't tried building webkitgtk+ without it, so I can't tell) 11:01:56< slpz> gnu_srs: The latter is bigger than I expected, so I don't know if sending it to the mailing list would be convenient. Perhaps publishing an alternative git branch/repo with those changes would be better, to have them well tested before proposing for formal inclusion. 11:04:45< gnu_srs> Since webkitgtk+ and other packages never completes it would be nice to get patched gnumach/hurd into the buildds asap. 11:06:06< gnu_srs> In any case, when you have published these patches I can try them out until Samuel publish new versions. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
