** Description changed: [Overall Rationale] Required to support full functional/performant ceph package. Dependency on google-perftools was dropped during 12.04 cycle to support late MIR; it would be good to re-enable these features for 12.10. >> google-perftools - http://code.google.com/p/gperftools << [Availability] In universe since hardy (maybe before) [Rationale] Provides tcmalloc - a high performance implementation of malloc for multi-threaded environments. This is important from a performance perspective for ceph. http://gperftools.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/doc/tcmalloc.html [Security] No CVE's found. [Quality assurance] Package has test suite but currently not enabled: BLOCKED Blocked by http://code.google.com/p/gperftools/issues/detail?id=428&q=heap-checker_unittest - issues with libc6 2.15 compatibility. [Dependencies] Other than libunwind (on this MIR): Runtime dependency on gv for google-perftools - this can probably be dropped to Suggests (currently recommends). [Standards compliance] Package build is CDBS rather than debhelper but looks OK. Two lintian warnings and a few informational messages - nothing significant. [Maintenance] No outstanding bugs in Debian and looks to be well maintained. Current issue in Lucid - its not installable - but not relevant for 12.10 MIR. Upstream primary maintainer has just changed - Feb 2012 [Background information] Quote "Perftools is a collection of a high-performance multi-threaded malloc() implementation, plus some pretty nifty performance analysis tools." Renamed upstream to gperftools. >> libunwind - http://www.nongnu.org/libunwind/ << [Availability] In universe since hardy Currently does not target armhf [Rationale] Dependency for google-perftools; required for ceph. [Security] No CVE's found. [Quality assurance] - Currently FTBFS: INPROGRESS - Needs merge/sync from Debian: INPROGRESS - Test suite not enabled and has test failures: INPROGRESS + Test suite is currently not enabled and has test failures. [Dependencies] All in main. [Standards compliance] Pre-debhelper 7 style, but relatively simple - looks OK. [Maintenance] Maintained in Debian (no outstanding bugs); FTBFS on some platforms so not brilliant. [Background information] Only used in amd64 build - need to investigate why.
