Also missing arm mutexes.

 db4.0:

Also missing arm mutexes.

 db4.2:
 #232305: libdb4.2: Hangs on SMP (HyperThreaded P4) system using slapd 2.1.25-1

There doesn't seem to be a fix for this?  Or did I miss
something?

 #248131: amd64 support: Missing mutexes and $LD vs. $LD
 
 
 I also will apply the fix to:
 #266685: libdb3: db3 loops on mutex on hppa

The bug says it was fixed in libdb4, but db2 to db4.3 seem to
have identical code for it.

AFAICS, this is fixed with changing configure to never link to pthread,
and not using LD_ASSUME_KERNEL.

When is it linking to pthread?

I hope that I didn't misrepresent that changes from:
  * Forward-port Kurt Roeckx's patch from bug#281059.
- Add fast mutexes for MIPS and amd64.
- Add --enable-pthreadsmutexes to configure.
  * Remove LD_ASSUME_KERNEL hack, since the
--enable-pthreadsmutexes option defaults to off.
(from db4.3 changelog)

(But I meant that change - with dropping the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL hack, this
problem should AFAICS also disappear.)

gnupg 1.2.5 vs. 1.4

2005-01-16 Thread Lance W. Haverkamp
gnupg has been at version 1.4 for a month now.  Our developer 
information page for gnupg says:

 Testing Status
# 167 days old (needed 10 days)
# Not touching package, as requested by freeze (contact Debian-release 
if update is needed)
# Not considered

Is there a reason gnupg has been frozen at version 1.2.5 (stable, 
testing  unstable) for half a year?

The PGP Global Directory (keyserver-beta.pgp.com) won't work with  1.4 
and s/mime compatibility in 1.9 isn't very far behind.
