Package: emacs Version: 1:28.1+1-2 Severity: important X-Debbugs-Cc: sti...@cuug.ab.ca
I haven't dug into the guts of the installation process to try and identify what's happening as yet so this is an inference, but it seems like the byte-compilation phase is tossing off (or equivalent to) a "make -j" without any sort of awareness of the number of processors in a system. I am observing hundreds of attempts to batch-compile in parallel, and naturally my system starts thrashing badly and killing processes. I imagine this should eventually finish, but I wouldn't presume to guess how long it would take! (Also a bit surprised this hasn't already been reported, and thus afraid it's some quirk of my installation, but if not it's *got* to be biting some other folks as least as badly.) -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') merged-usr: no Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.19.0 (SMP w/4 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages emacs depends on: ih emacs-gtk 1:28.1+1-2 emacs recommends no packages. emacs suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
