Re: cpdup /pfs

2011-06-17 Thread Matthew Dillon
The problem here is that cpdup'ing /pfs will result in the wrong
symlinks on the target filesystem because the PFS IDs are different on
the target filesystem.  There is nothing cpdup can do here to help,
you have to tell it to ignore the pfs directory (see -x option to cpdup
and the use of a file containing a list of exclusions).

Freeze for pkgsrc-2011Q2 starting June 19th, 17:00 UTC

2011-06-17 Thread Alistair Crooks
Hi folks,

I'd had hoped to be able to get Minix3 support into 2011Q2, but I
think we've run out of time, and so we're going to go ahead and start
the freeze in preparation for pkgsrc-2011Q2 on Sunday June 19th at
17:00 UTC.

If anyone has cycles, there are still around 60 packages to
DESTDIR-ise, and the bulk builds show some room for improvement (and
thanks for the DF bulk build results).  If anyone can help out with
these, it would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
Alistair


HEADS DOWN: via padlock possibly broken on master

2011-06-17 Thread Alex Hornung
Hi all,

I just commited something that might well cause a kernel panic if you
are using a via cpu with padlock and use the padlock module. I added
support to make use of Via's on-chip RNG, but someone needs to test it
to confirm that it works as expected; I don't have a VIA CPU for testing.

Regards,
Alex Hornung
