Hey, As the subject says, I started a full run today. Originally I had intended to just upgrade, do an incremental run to see it worked and logout... However, I managed to turn it into a complete disaster.
I "tailed" the lintian.log and realized it was spewing out errors. The problem was clean_env (in lib/Util.pm) dying due to missing locale and I eventually fixed it by generating an en_US locale in $LINTIAN_ROOT/locale. I guess I managed to break said locale myself. By then I had managed to corrupt part the lab info files (binary-packages was empty) and html_reports had been aborted half-way through leaving lintian.d.o without index.html. I fixed the latter by feeding html_reports with the old lintian.log. While it did restore the index site and all, it had a "minor" issue looking up "a couple of maintainers"[1]. By now the package import is complete and I reran html_reports (with same log). It gave fewer errors/warnings this time, but you may still see some "hick-ups". Lintian is currently running in screen (as the lintian user)[2] and have past src:aspell not long ago. Assuming the clean run is similar to a full run, lintian should be done with the archive check in 3 days time. ~Niels [1] By "minor" I mean "major" and by "a couple of maintainers" I mean "most of them". [2] Accessible via: $ sudo -u lintian -s $ script /dev/null $ screen -x harness runs in window 0. harness.log and lintian.log are tailed in window 1 and 2. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
