Note this is not from tarballs, it's from CVS updated to 2005-11-09. Things seem fine so far. codaconfedit is trashing my cacheblocks statement in venus.conf. It reduces them from 100000 to 10000. This has been happening for a couple of releases. It's easy to work around and I thought I was going to debug it, but it's time to admit that's not gonna happen this time either. Sorry! Also, the console messages say conflicting things about this: Starting /usr/sbin/venus...

Note that at the top it says it's using the RVM values, but after the VDB scan it says "CacheBlocks changing". There were a couple weirdnesses in the build. They seem to be debian issues, and may be local to my machine. I used the following script to build: cd /playpen/Projects/Coda for i in lwp rpc2 rvm coda; do pushd $i debian/rules clean ./bootstrap.sh ./configure debian/rules binary popd dpkg -i --force-overwrite *$i* done >World.log and got these warnings/errors: [ ... ] dh_shlibdeps dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: could not find any packages for /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 (libncurses.so.5) dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: unable to find dependency information for shared library libncurses (soname 5, path /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5, dependency field Depends) where the last warning was repeated about a dozen times. I do have libncurses5 and libncurses5-dev (version 5.5-1) installed. -- School of Systems and Information Engineering http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.Received on 2005-11-10 20:31:56
