Yes, but I don't have neither the time nor the motivation to do it. This is how I see it: - The problem only happens on Alpha while it all works fine on other architectures. - The problem only happens with optimizations turned on, while it all works fine with -O0, also on Alpha. - It takes at least half an hour to build libtagcoll on escher. - I've been working hard on a libtagcoll rewrite, which I'll soon upload to experimental. I would prefer to invest my time in getting the new code into shape, rewriting the central database and trying to streamline tag submission reviews. If you however would like to investigate, the code is still in the sid dchroot on escher, in the directory ~enrico. Let me know if you intend to work on it, so that I won't delete the compilation efforts on escher. Ciao, Enrico -- GPG key: 1024D/797EBFAB 2000-12-05 Enrico Zini <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
