#10989: Revert Berkeley DB to version 5. -------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: ken@… | Owner: ken@… Type: enhancement | Status: assigned Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.3 Component: BOOK | Version: SVN Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | -------------------------+-----------------------
Comment (by ken@…): I'm (still) looking at trying to reinstate the tests (Andy commented them in r10369 when moving to 5.3.21). Failures in comparing after bulk delete or in checking that a transaction had been applied. Also, despite only 5 jobs, it used up to 800% of an 8-core machine. First attempt to remove failures by using a lower number of parallel jobs did not work. In the output from running (but not in the logs) there are comments about db_repsite not being built, and I wonder if those messages are for the tests which fail. This time I used taskset to restrict to 4 cores so I could do other things, loadavg often around 7 when other cores idle. But many tests barely load the machine, this is more time-based than SBU-based. According to gentoo, upstream strip the db_repsite sources (confirmed - mentioned in Makefile but not present) and they have a sed to remove them. They also have one other sed for a false positive - but let's see if I can get to that few errors. -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/10989#comment:8> BLFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs> Beyond Linux From Scratch -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
