Hi Ben, Bastien, Lucas,
Quoting Ben Hutchings: > I tried running lintian on a full amd64 build of linux. lintian > allocated about 23 GiB of VM and then was OOM-killed before generating > any output. There have been several releases since this bug report was filed (almost 5 years back(!)) and there have been many memory and performance based fixes so far. I don't have the compute to build/run checks on linux myself. Would you be able to confirm if the memory usage is in sensible limits now with the latest release 2.140.0 please? > I notice that <https://lintian.debian.org/sources/linux> has no > information, probably because of this. > > This is a regression in lintian, but I don't know how long ago it > happened. I can see linux has lintian tags in the UDD (lintian.d.o was revamped and does not show package-specific tags now - UDD does that job): https://udd.debian.org/lintian/?packages=linux Lucas, will you be able to comment on how much memory linux uses on UDD workers? Quoting Bastian Germann: > When you look at this again please consider replacing the BerkeleyDB > storage backend with a different database so that we can get rid of > BerkeleyDB. See #1119186. Thanks for providing a patch to drop this - it has been released in the new lintian version so this part is done. Best, Nilesh
