Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Continous build errors

[Heiko Z. <he...@zu...>]

Hey,

it sounds like you're doing everything right.
Did you try to compile on different physical hosts or was it always  
the same machine? With a compile this big you sometimes find hardware  
problems you would never stumbled over otherwise.

When you test, work with the default config for now.

I'm going to kick off a fresh compile on my build machine, to make  
sure I didn't introduce a bug with the last update (when I added  
2.4.36.6).
