Package: apt-build Version: 0.12.17 Severity: wishlist
During an "apt-build upgrade", some packages such as gcc, g++, glibc, etc. was recompiled since new versions were available. However, these packages take very long time (more than 19h for me :() to be compiled and are adviced to be exclude for the "apt-build world" process (in the apt-build's article). I think it can be useful to except critical packages and packages we don't want to be compiled. Of course, we can choose to apt-get upgrade this package before running apt-build, but this feature will be nice ;) Thanks to you for apt-build, KnuX. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-custom Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages apt-build depends on: ii apt 0.6.43.2 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii apt-utils 0.6.43.2 APT utility programs ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.68 Debian configuration management sy ii devscripts 2.9.10 Scripts to make the life of a Debi ii dpkg-dev 1.13.11.1 package building tools for Debian ii g++ 4:4.0.2-2 The GNU C++ compiler ii gcc 4:4.0.2-2 The GNU C compiler ii libappconfig-perl 1.56-2 Perl module for configuration file ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.18+b1 Perl interface to libapt-pkg ii perl 5.8.7-10 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages apt-build recommends: ii build-essential 11.1 informational list of build-essent ii fakeroot 1.5.6 Gives a fake root environment -- debconf information: * apt-build/arch_amd: athlon-xp apt-build/arch_alpha: ev4 * apt-build/options: apt-build/arch_intel: pentium apt-build/arch_arm: armv2 * apt-build/make_options: * apt-build/olevel: Medium * apt-build/build_dir: /var/cache/apt-build/build * apt-build/repository_dir: /var/cache/apt-build/repository apt-build/arch_sparc: sparc apt-build/arch_amd64: x86-64 * apt-build/add_to_sourceslist: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
