[Server-devel] oatslite under RHEL/CentOS x86_64
We just had some fun debugging of oatslite on CentOS 6.2 x86_64. A quick note of warning in case someone else is mad or foolish enough to try it too :-) The short version of it is: bitfrost is currently broken on 64 bits. This is what an XS based on CentOS x86_64 needs to run oatslite: - latest bitfrost.i686 (from an XO repo) - python.i686 - an extracted python2.6 binary from python.i686 -- I used rpmdev-extract and installed the binary as /usr/bin/python2.6-i686 Using python2.6-i686, oatslite now signs the messages correctly. The root cause seems to be a problem in the Pyrex bindings to libtomcrypt / TomsFastMath. Maybe ctypes would be better here. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- Software Architect - OLPC - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel

Does this effect xs-activation installed on XS 0.7? On Mar 27, 2012, at 12:32 PM, Martin Langhoff wrote: > We just had some fun debugging of oatslite on CentOS 6.2 x86_64.

Yeah, and there be dragons in the 64 bit path, confirmed.
