--- Begin Message ---Package: pbuilder Version: 0.215+nmu3 Severity: normal Dear maintainer, currently pbuilder use hardlinks to use the apt cache inside the pbuilder chroots. This is not possibile if you keep /var/cache/pbuilder in a different device than the one you keep your apt cache (a sane example: you can keep /var/cache/pbuilder in tmpfs to speed up things). In this case you have to use APTCACHEHARDLINK=no, and pbuilder fall backs to normal cp. a full copy of the entire apt cache, which is something slow if you have a big (huge) cache, other than a waste of space. I didn't get why you use hard links instead of symlinks, so I'm asking you either to explain the choice or to move to symlink. Thanks for pbuilder. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 arm64 armhf ppc64el s390x armel Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages pbuilder depends on: ii coreutils 8.23-3 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.54 ii debianutils 4.4+b1 ii debootstrap 1.0.66 ii dpkg-dev 1.17.22 ii wget 1.16-3 Versions of packages pbuilder recommends: ii devscripts 2.14.10 ii fakeroot 1.20.2-1 ii iproute2 3.16.0-2 ii net-tools 1.60-26+b1 ii sudo 1.8.11p2-1 Versions of packages pbuilder suggests: ii cowdancer 0.73 ii gdebi-core 0.9.5.5+nmu1 pn pbuilder-uml <none> -- debconf information excluded -- regards, Mattia Rizzolo GPG Key: 4096R/B9444540 http://goo.gl/I8TMB more about me: http://mapreri.org Launchpad User: https://launchpad.net/~mapreri Ubuntu Wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MattiaRizzolo

Not when building several packages at the same time, which I regularily do, as partial/ and moves to partial/../ will also be affected, so, no. bye, //mirabilos -- "How can you ban language, words?
