Re: cpdup /pfs
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). -Matt
Freeze for pkgsrc-2011Q2 starting June 19th, 17:00 UTC
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
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
