Summary: Review Request: openbsd-malloc - Alternative malloc() implementation https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=235731 ------- Additional Comments From rc040203@xxxxxxxxxx 2007-04-11 02:34 EST ------- Some remarks: 1. MUSTFIX: This spec doesn't apply $RPM_BUILD_ROOT. It compiles and places its files directly into */BUILD. One way to approach this: %setup -c -T 2. Is there an agreement with the glibc developers upon using the name libmalloc.*? To me, this name appears as too general. 3. http://mr.himki.net/index-alloc.html is in a Cyrillan written language (Russian?). An English version would be helpful, because except of the source code there doesn't seem to be any other documentation. 4. The source file seems to be intended to be used as a preloaded module: >From the source code: * Compilation: gcc -shared -fPIC -O2 OpenBSD_malloc_Linux.c -o malloc.so * Launching: LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/malloc.so firefox I am not sure if packaging it as a library is a wise decision. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
