Package: lmbench
Version: 2.0-patch2-9
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


When invoking lmbench, it gives all kinds of errors about missing files.

                ----------------------------------------

You need to configure some parameters to lmbench.  Once you have configured
these parameters, you may do multiple runs by saying

        "make rerun"

in the src subdirectory.

NOTICE: please do not have any other activity on the system if you can
help it.  Things like the second hand on your xclock or X perfmeters
are not so good when benchmarking.  In fact, X is not so good when
benchmarking.

=====================================================================

Hang on, we are calculating your timing granularity.
./config-run: line 39: ../bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/msleep: No such file or 
directory
./config-run: line 40: ../bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/enough: No such file or 
directory
OK, it looks like you can time stuff down to  usec resolution.

Hang on, we are calculating your timing overhead.

directory
./config-run: line 46: ../bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/timing_o: No such file or 
directory
OK, it looks like your gettimeofday() costs  usecs.

Hang on, we are calculating your loop overhead.

directory
./config-run: line 52: ../bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/loop_o: No such file or 
directory
OK, it looks like your benchmark loop costs  usecs.

=====================================================================

Several benchmarks operate on a range of memory.  This memory should be
sized such that it is at least 4 times as big as the external cache[s]
on your system.   It should be no more than 80% of your physical memory.

The bigger the range, the more accurate the results, but larger sizes
take somewhat longer to run the benchmark.

This benchmark measures, by default, memory latency for a number of
different strides.  That can take a long time and is most useful if you
are trying to figure out your cache line size or if your cache line size
is greater than 128 bytes.

If you are planning on sending in these results, please don't do a fast
run.

If you are measuring software only, you probably want to do a fast run,
so answer yes below.  Answering yes means that we measure memory latency
with a 128 byte stride.

Calculating mhz, please wait for a moment...
./config-run: line 224: ../bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/mhz: No such file or directory
I think your CPU mhz is



but I am frequently wrong.  If that is the wrong Mhz, type in your
best guess as to your processor speed.  It doesn't have to be exact,
but if you know it is around 800, say 800.

Type in just the Mhz part, like 3060 or 2800 for 3.06GHz or 2.8GHz P4s.
..
OK, no results mailed.

Configuration done, thanks.
