Built with debuild -B -b > Michael Following Michael's steps, I successfully built ruby1.9 on mkhppa3, one of Thibaut Varene's boxes, using the following kernel: Linux mkhppa3 2.6.22.19 #1 SMP Tue Oct 14 14:22:05 CEST 2008 parisc64 GNU/Linux Before that, I tried to build using lenny's 2.6.26. I ran into several WARN_ON()s and hard locks, and never managed to build ruby1.9 on hppa using lenny's kernel. This kernel is clearly not ready for a release, but it's not my call to make... After the build, ruby's test suite mostly passed (some thread tests just blocked, so there's still a problem with threading on hppa). So I had to disable it in debian/rules. I think that the status is "good enough" for lenny/hppa. And this should allow to build the other missing packages too. Dato, is it fine if I upload those binaries to unstable? How should I proceed to make them migrate to testing? I think they will magically appear in testing since the source is already in testing, but I'm not sure now. Thanks a lot to Michael for hinting about 2.6.22.19 :-) - -- | Lucas Nussbaum | lucas@lucas-nussbaum.net http://www.lucas-nussbaum.net/ | | jabber: lucas@nussbaum.fr GPG: 1024D/023B3F4F | -- Regards, Hideki Yamane henrich @ debian.or.jp/iijmio-mail.jp http://wiki.debian.org/HidekiYamane
