0.9.2 loops on YDL

2005-07-02T19:21:19Z

I've downloaded and installed lsat 0.9.2 on Linux/x86
(Fedora Core 3) and all seems OK. However on Linux/ppc
(Yellow Dog 4.0.1) it loops on start up. Here's the
output of strace:

At this point it just sits and does nothing, just
eating CPU.

Package Naming

2004-01-16T20:00:09Z

By naming packages the same as versions, I can't use
SF's package monitor feature (to email me whenever a
new package is released).

The monitor feature checks for new releases under a
specific package name, but if each new version is
released under a new package name ...

RedHat 7.3 bugs

2002-05-11T01:55:15Z

I have not had a change to test this first hand on
RedHat 7.3, but it is reported that after performing
checkfiles the outfilename is changes on RedHat 7.3
server... if I get a chance to install RH7.3 server
I will check this out myself. Also there is reported
to be a problem with checkinetd (checking xinetd.d) and
also checkftpusers is reported to fail also (reporting
no /etc/ftpusers when there is one)...

All of the above have been reported to be problems on
RedHat 7.3 _server_... this was in an email to me.
As noted, I need to get a copy and check this out.

Missing file...

2002-05-09T16:17:59Z

The file Makefile.in is missing from the package.
Configure needs this file to generate a makefile.
