Re: [Pingus-Devel] games-puzzle/pingus-0.7.6 - src_install() takes a long time

 As described here : https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=489600
 using an external USB 2.0 disk to install pingus results in a very
 looong install time.

 Is this related to the way that each file is installed individually
 instead of copying all of them and then chmod the files in the right
 manner ?


How long is long? Copying those few thousands files takes like 20sec for
me, which seems fine.

Potential issues I can imagine:

* something funky is going on with the current working directory and 'find'
ends up searching around elsewhere on the drive
* your specific version of 'install' is extra slow for some reason

Other then that I can't think of much that could be going wrong, it's a
pretty basic install routine after all.

 more than 10 minutes :-(


Is it reproducible? Reproducible when running on a plain Pingus source tree
without the Gentoo stuff around it?

Have you made sure that the drive is ok? Might be some bad blocks that are
causing things to slow down, 'dmesg' might have some error messages in that
case.

You could also try a wrap 'strace' around that find to see if anything
weird is going on.
