 the armel experimental buildd is again having hangings like #524745
 in octave3.2 postinst. Seen so far with:
 
 octave-audio octave-ad octave-combinatorics octave-fixed octave-general

I guess the individual packages don't matter that much, it hangs in
octave3.2's postinst, right?

correct. It might have something to do with what packages have been unpacked
before octave 3.2 postinst is run.

 correct. It might have something to do with what packages have been unpacked
 before octave 3.2 postinst is run.

Can you make the build log(s) available up until the hang (I assume there
is such a thing, but I'm not familiar with buildd's handling of blocking
builds). If possible, for octave-audio, but I'll take whatever you have,
obviously :)

Thanks
Thomas

experimental build logs can be found from experimental.debian.net:

I can't reproduce this in a chroot. However, I can reproduce it
with the sbuild. both installing octave3.2 and running by hand:

octave-3.2.0-silent --no-history --no-init-file --eval pkg ('rebuild');

work just fine. But during the install of octave3.2 when doing

sbuild -d experimental octave-audio_1.1.4-1

octave hangs on the above command during postinst! notice that experimental
buildd's use a old sbuild patched for experimental:

Yes.  We have included some changes to better support dependency
resolution when building experimental packages.  However, we haven't
AFAIK included all the changes yet.  I'll be happy to integrate them;
I just need the patches.

Is it known what the postinst is blocking on?  What's happening here
that's different between the unstable and experimental sbuilds?

Well, it's not clear what causes the bug. Last time it happened on
different architectures and we have actually never found out what caused
it. It just stopped failing :)

The best guess in #524745 was something with open file descriptors.

octave3.2 autobuild problems

2009-06-19 Thread Rafael Laboissiere
The octave3.2 package failed to autobuild on ia64 and is stuck on
powerpc.  This is blocking our planned transition of the octave-forge
packages from octave3.0 to octave3.2 [1].

The failure on caballero is due to the infamous alternatives problem [2] but
nobody seem to care.  I wish I could ask for this:

gb octave3.2_3.2.0-2 . ia64-but-please-not-on-caballero
 
but I guess that the syntax is wrong. ;-)

OTOH, the problem with powerpc seems to be easier to fix.  I have asked
for a dep-wait in the past [3] but I think it is wrong now, since
arpack_2.1+parpack96.dfsg-2 has migrated into testing.  Please, could the
dep-wait be removed or the following be done:

gb octave3.2_3.2.0-2 . powerpc

I've given it back, let's see if we're lucky.
