Re: Quest re: Subversion on SLES 11.0
Michael -- 1. I issue './configure...' to configure Subversion. './configure...' stops and tell me that the configure/make for 'zlib' had errors. I 'cd' to the zlib directory .. etc. Your experience is normal if you build Subversion by hand. No one actually does this in the "real" open source Unix world. We have system like OpenBSD "ports" system that have compound makefiles to download and build the *dependencies*. Attached at the end of this email, just as an example of how it is done, is the (heavily macroized) 'make' file in the ports tree of OpenBSD for Subversion. It won't work on your system but it really shows how it works. The macros are "literate programming" enough you should grok the intent easily enough. My recommendation: 1. Build Subversion from scratch using the ports system from OpenBSD or a Macintosh * OpenBSD has ports builtin * get on the web the Darwin project 'ports' tool to do this for Mac 2. Redirect the output of the 'ports' run to a text file and study. Mainframe Linuxers need for their sanity to have a couple of open source operating systems on cheap PC's, maybe several under some pc virtualization system. It really speeds up self-taught problem-solving if you have several open source OS'es handy to try things on until something works in a very revealing manner. -- Jack J.

And then I should wait until I see that the list server rejected the original posting, because it contained listserv commands, before I send my apologies.' Billy "Billy R.

Takk for sist, Tore. What's happening is that the application is polling with very short delay and thus getting tiny amounts of CPU time from z/VM but very often. In this situation a kernel bug starts to play a role in that some of the cost of waking up and going to sleep is not accounted for by Linux. The kernel code has now been changed and the fix for this will appear sometime in the service stream. With that, Linux will also see 9% CPU (as system time) Rob -- Rob van der Heij Velocity Software http://www.velocitysoftware.com/ -- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
