Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Change the shebang of pythondistdeps.py to Python 3 (#212)
well, I think we should have some configure switch which interpreter to use for all of python scripts...

This makes no sense, /usr/bin/python is usually the linked to the binary of the default python version in use on distros, so hardcoding the version makes no sense. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Create binary rpm packages in parallel? (better multiple CPU core utilization) (#211)
Yes its quite feasible to package binary *.rpm files in parallel. The hardest problem is choosing a framework for parallelization: OMP, or pthreads or (in RPM5) yarn. A general framework for parallelization is needed, with queues and thread pools and output serialization etc, is needed because there are many simple loops in RPM that would benefit from being done in parallel. FWIW: Using OMP on the rpmbuild loop would be the least intrusive but perhaps hardest to maintain (compared to plain pthreads or yarn from pigz). (aside) Before attempting parallelization, there are some costly "sanity checks" on file manifests in rpm build that are quadratic or worse that should be studied and fixed (at least in RPM5: I suspect there are some in RPM4 too but haven't measured recently). Run cache grind on a kernel build (which has lots of files) to see what I am talking about, -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Create binary rpm packages in parallel? (better multiple CPU core utilization) (#211)
Hello, I'd like to ask your opinion on the idea of creating binary rpms in parallel. It seems possible: I looked at packageBinaries() and it has a straightforward for loop with no obvious dependencies between iterations. Each iteration could be in its own thread via pthreads. The reason I would like to do this is that we use rpm in Yocto project, and a) making binary rpms is a part of image building process in Yocto; there's generally no common package feed, so a lot of time is spent on building rpms on the local machine. b) some of the source packages produce a lot of very small binary packages; for instance we package glibc locales, or perl modules separately. In embedded world constraining disk space usage is important, so this has to be done. This makes rpm building really slow - several minutes or more, as it iterates over them one by one.

So in AIX, gid 0 is simply called "system" instead of "root"? -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
