Hi I did "apt-get -t sid source xserver-xfree86", and tried building it with dpkg-buildpackage overnight. I had 1GB free on "/" partition where the action was taking place, but as it turned out, I ran out of disk space there.
My questions are: 1) Is this normal? Should it really take over 1GB to build xserver-xfree86 4.2 deb? The sources themselves are only 169MB. 2) I also have 1GB free on /home partition. Can I use it during the build? After the build failed, I tried moving build-tree/xc/xc-xserver-xfree86-dbg to /home/temporary and sym-linking, but dpkg-buildpackage removes build-tree when it starts, so sym-linking was irrelevant. 3) Are there xserver-xfree86 4.2 debs for stable? I did not want to install Sid binaries, because libc6 upgrade would have to be done. 4) If I really want a very stable system, and at the same time I want xf4.2, how averse should I be to upgrading libc6 to the version in Sid? If I do, in fact, install libc6, how long until it gets replaced by a Woody version of itself? Oleg P.S.
