Package: geordi
Version: 20080803T2044-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

When running geordi (or geordi-local) it fails to run with the following:

I: Refreshing chroot
I: (To avoid refreshing every time, edit ALWAYS_REFRESH_CHROOT in
I: /etc/geordi/scripts-config)
I: Refreshing chroot in /var/lib/geordi/rt
I: Compiling prelude
I: Using g++: /usr/bin/g++
I: Copying libraries
I: Running test binary
I: Setting defaults
I: Done.
geordi-local: setResourceLimit: invalid argument (Invalid argument)


The appropriate part when stracing is:

setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, {rlim_cur=25, rlim_max=0}) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid
argument)


When looking through the geordi source package to try and debug the
issue, I noticed the following in the upstream ChangeLog

Wed May 28 14:07:43 CEST 2008  Eelis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
  * Bump GHC requirement to 6.8.3 for i386 because of setResourceLimit bug.

Seeing as debian currently only has ghc 6.8.2, and I'm on an i386 machine,
this is most likely the problem. (The bug was confirmed on another i386
machine)

Bradley Smith
