Status of the hppa buildds

[Luk Claes]

Hi

During 6 days already, there is nothing built on hppa. This is obviously
blocking a lot of packages to migrate to testing and can not continue
much longer.

What's the status of fixing the issues that caused this and how long do
you think this will continue?

Cheers

Luk

i suppose the cause is bug #554574 which lets apt unusable. installing
previous release of libstdc++6 4.4.2-1 makes apt work again but... read
the bug report.

Domenico

The libstdc++ failures are the highest priority item on my list. I'm
investigating the failure.

Please note that the gcj runtime failures have been triaged and fixed
by a set of patches I delivered to debian-glibc.

Cheers,
Carlos.

hey Luk,
 Yeah - there was some bad communication between lamont and myself. I
agreed to take over buildd maintenance of peri/penalosa, but the baton
got lost in the handoff.

Things are back in order. Today I finished getting the new penalosa
setup as a buildd, and I've resurrected peri which appeared to be
having problems talking to w-b. I've worked around the libstdc++/apt
problem on both by downgrading to a working version.

Expect a lot of debs in incoming RSN.

Great - I'll leave libstdc++ downgraded on the buildds in the
meantime. Let me know when it is safe to upgrade.

AFAICT there's still a problem though.

paer does not look to be up yet, but does have a huge list of packages
assigned to it in state "building" [1].

The other 2 buildds are only picking relatively recent uploads from
the "needs build" list, which means that the older uploads assigned to
paer are still not going anywhere.

So, unless paer will be up soon, I think that the packages assigned to it
should be reassigned or moved back to the "needs build" queue.

Cheers,
FJP

I just gave back a whole bunch of packages.

Kind regards,
