Hi,
I've reported it before that the debian package installer fails on minimal systems during the re-dumping of pike modules. Before, dumping by hand would mostly resolve the issue, however currently I'm working on such a system where the (I think the same) failure also occurs by doing the dumping by hand.
However the failure notice of the dumping process is not very helpfull:
root@iota:/# pike7.8 -x dump -r /usr/lib/pike7.8 Alarm clock root@iota:/# echo $? 142 root@iota:/# pike7.8 -x dump --verbose -r /usr/lib/pike7.8 #### /usr/lib/pike7.8: Is a directory (dumping recursively). #### /usr/lib/pike7.8/7.0: Is a directory (dumping recursively). #### /usr/lib/pike7.8/7.0/include: Is a directory (dumping recursively). #### /usr/lib/pike7.8/7.0/modules: Is a directory (dumping recursively). #### /usr/lib/pike7.8/7.0/modules/__default.pmod: Dumped. #### /usr/lib/pike7.8/7.0/modules/Stack.pmod: Dumped. ... (a few more modules are being dumped) #### /usr/lib/pike7.8/7.4/modules/Sql.pmod/sql.pike: Dumped. #### /usr/lib/pike7.8/7.4/modules/__default.pmod: Dumped. #### /usr/lib/pike7.8/7.4/modules/Protocols.pmod: Is a directory (dumping recursively). Alarm clock
any thoughts?
