16:48 < csiadmin> hi everyone, I can't get my kickstart %post to run, I'm probably doing something stupid - but I've checked all the commands work, but it just does not run. I'm using --nochroot - is there anywhere I can look/diagnose?
16:48 < csiadmin> opp - wrong window :-)
17:04 < rxr> hm?
17:04 < rxr> hi csiadmin
17:05 < csiadmin> hey rxr - hope you are well.
17:13 < rxr> how do you do?
17:18 < digitaloktay> he is from csi miami :D
17:19 < digitaloktay> hi people

19:07 < CIA-17> rene * r34931 /trunk/package/develop/ (apr/apr-config.patch.cross apr-util/apu-config.patch.cross):
19:07 < CIA-17> * fixed apr and apr-util not to leak invalid, absolute library path's,
19:07 < CIA-17> fixes subversion cross builds if the host has apr and apr-utils
19:07 < CIA-17> installed in the same libdir as the build
19:55 < rxr> http://rene.rebe.name/2009-11-20/some-quick-look-at-google-chrome-os/
20:07 < rxr> has noone here segmentation faults of linux kernel's scripts/mod/modpost while building the trunk's kernel with gcc-4.4. x?
20:18 < rxr> the most annoying this is that I just fixed all the fine details for silo to cross build properly
20:18 < rxr> and gcc-4.4 apparently broke silo :-(((
20:19 < rxr> I could cry over all this open source landscape regressions :-(
20:22 < rxr> ppc32 breaks in a more subtile way, too:
20:22 < rxr> arch/powerpc/platforms/chrp/setup.c: In function 'chrp_event_scan':
20:22 < rxr> arch/powerpc/platforms/chrp/setup.c:378: error: the frame size of 1040 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes
20:24 < rxr> lol: http://www.pubbs.net/linuxppc/200911/31/
20:24 < rxr> "For now, just enable CONFIG-PPC-DISABLE-WERROR."
20:30 < rxr> lol:
20:31 < rxr> config FRAME_WARN
20:31 < rxr> int "Warn for stack frames larger than (needs gcc 4.4)"
20:31 < rxr> range 0 8192
20:31 < rxr> default 1024 if !64BIT
20:31 < rxr> default 2048 if 64BIT
20:31 < rxr> this is even a new "warning" introduced with gcc-4.4 explicitly supported by the linux kernel
20:31 < rxr> this ins INSANE
20:32 < rxr> I guess I just patch that to 2048 to hopefully silence this (just upstream devel note) for now
20:40 < CIA-17> rene * r34932 /trunk/package/base/linux26/stack-frame-warning.patch:
20:40 < CIA-17> * workaround gcc-4.4 introduced stack frame warning, causing a build
20:40 < CIA-17> error of linux26 on ppc(32)
20:40 < rxr> so, maybe now "only" a x86 kernel build modpost segfault is left, as well as silo build error (due final binary (patching) deltas being too large)
20:40 < rxr> and then, of course, the run-time testing
20:48 < rxr> sparc64-t2-linux-gnu-nm second | grep -v '*ABS*' | sort > second.map

20:48 < rxr> Distance between two changes larger than 63K 3 118153 44689
20:57 < rxr> the most suprising fact is that currently only the linux26 x86 kernel remains broken due a segfault in the modpost helper
20:57 < rxr> and that given it's the most popular arch, guess too many cooks poisen the meal ...
20:57 < rxr> even the always fragile sparc64 stuff at least built ...
