Bug#956605: texlive-bin: FTBFS on powerpc & sparc64

Instead, you need to use filter like this: ifneq (,$(filter $(NO_MASSIVE_PARALLEL_BUILD), $(DEB_HOST_ARCH))) MAKEFLAGS += -j8 endif Adrian -- .''`.

Well, you put the architecture names in the subject, so it would have been useful to CC us ;). As for the -1 package building fine, it's a race condition. It may fail, but it doesn't have to fail. As you can see, it now built fine on sparc64 since it was picked up by the buildd "nvg5120" which has fewer vCPUs than landau which has 128 vCPUs. >> I recommend forwarding this issue upstream and limiting the parallel jobs >> for texlive-bin to 16 or even 8. >> > We have to perform another upload anyway, so I'll try to change that > parameter and do another upload ASAP.

Hi Hilmar! Please always CC the arch-specific mailing lists when filing arch-specific bugs. Looking at the issue, it seems that texlive-bin has issues when built with many jobs in parallel. On both powerpc and sparc64, the package was built with "make -j32" [1, 2]. Both kapitsa and landau are systems with many virtual CPUs (both are VMs on POWER and SPARC servers) something that is still unusual on x86_64. I recommend forwarding this issue upstream and limiting the parallel jobs for texlive-bin to 16 or even 8.

Not sure, what I'm doing wrong here. Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.

Source: texlive-bin Version: 2020.20200327.54578-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Upload of TL 2020 to Debian unstable. The build fails at least on powerpc & sparc64. Interestingly it still worked when the -1 was uploaded to experimental.
