Hi, (Sorry for breaking the threading - I didn't subscribe to the list, I just found this in the web archive. I should probably subscribe... :) David Miller wrote: > Ok, since I have a 280R just like Josip, I think a good plan > is for him to show me the commands he used to create the > build root where he can trigger bad things. I can't be 100% sure, because it was James Troup who initially set it up, but I believe that the chroot on lebrun.d.o was set up by just doing something mundane like running debootstrap, more specifically something like this: sudo debootstrap lenny /mnt http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian I conclude this because it has a var/log/bootstrap.log in it, dated 2007-06-19 12:15, which has: Selecting previously deselected package base-files. (Reading database ... 0 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking base-files (from .../base-files_4.0.0_sparc.deb) ... [...] Setting up build-essential (11.3) ... And it also has a var/log/dpkg.log which has: 2007-06-19 12:13:10 install base-files <none> 4.0.0 [...] 2007-06-19 12:15:23 status installed build-essential 11.3 Again I can't be 100% sure of the exact command line used, but that really should be it :) After that, dpkg.log in the chroot also has a purge of the 'procps' package, and an installation of the 'sparc-utils' package. A few hours after those two, a random selection of package installations starts - the buildd went online. I'd try doing a debootstrap of lenny (that's Debian "testing"), and then inside it, run one or more of those 'dpkg-query -S libc.so.6'. -- 2. That which causes joy or happiness. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
