I wouldn't be surprised if we are not alone. Yeah, some of our build nodes are actually pretty old too, but that shouldn't matter really as the building happens inside a chroot with the latest packages, which includes latest ln. Do you really build on an older node against older libs with older ln etc? I would have thought you'd also have some kind of chroot on these nodes when building too no?</blockquote><div> </div><div>No. We just have virtual machines with Debian Wheezy to do the build.</div><div> </div><div>Umut</div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> Col -- Colin Guthrie gmane(at)<a href="http://colin.guthr.ie" target="_blank">colin.guthr.ie</a> <a href="http://colin.guthr.ie/" target="_blank">http://colin.guthr.ie/</a> Day Job: Tribalogic Limited <a href="http://www.tribalogic.net/" target="_blank">http://www.tribalogic.net/</a> Open Source: Mageia Contributor <a href="http://www.mageia.org/" target="_blank">http://www.mageia.org/</a> PulseAudio Hacker <a href="http://www.pulseaudio.org/" target="_blank">http://www.pulseaudio.org/</a> Trac Hacker <a href="http://trac.edgewall.org/" target="_blank">http://trac.edgewall.org/</a> _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list <a href="javascript:;" onclick="_e(event, 'cvml', 'systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org')">systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel</a> </blockquote>
