With the help of IRC, the backtrace I received suggested the problem was in liboil. I tried to build liboil on the old powerpc, but kept running out of memory (it's a thin client, and I'm not sure there's swap available). It was running out of memory when building the docs so next chance I get I'll try again with excluding the doc build part. It's reasonably slow process compiling on the old architecture, as you might imagine. I have a faster powerpc, but I'm not familiar enough with gcc specifics to know if I can emulate the older powerpc and build on that machine. Details suggestions are welcome, of course. ;) Thanks, -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
