Starting with a white-room F10 build is going to cause many such regressions, and re-discovering all the associated workarounds is going to cost a lot of time. -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://www.codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://www.sugarlabs.org/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Writeable file mappings are just not supported by jffs2, and cause mmap() to return an error. glibc likes to do it when building the locale-archive, and I vaguely remember I had a workaround for this in our fork of the glibc rpm. -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://www.codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://www.sugarlabs.org/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

As far as I know, jffs2 doesn't support writable mmaps. In the debian ports, we add some special magic to tell apt not to use them ( http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Installing_Debian_as_an_upgrade ); and the following code from pilgrim appears to do something similar: echo " - Configuring RPM to not use writable mmap (as jffs2 don't support it)" mkdir -p $INSTALL_ROOT/etc/rpm cat < $INSTALL_ROOT/etc/rpm/macros.rpmdb %__dbi_cdb create private nommap EOF It's probably worth reading through the pilgrim 'streams.d/olpc-development.stream' file to see if there are other fixes you are missing. --scott -- ( http://cscott.net/ ) ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

I should strace it. I would gdb it first and only if that turns out being hard, then try my luck with strace.
