Yes, that is probably better. Reassigning to xfsprogs.
Nathan,
With your latest upload, mkfs.xfs seems to have gained a dependency on two
libraries which it previously was not linked to:
$ ldd mkfs.xfs # from testing
libuuid.so.1 => /lib/libuuid.so.1 (0x40028000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0x4002b000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
$ ldd mkfs.xfs # from unstable
libuuid.so.1 => /lib/libuuid.so.1 (0x40028000)
librt.so.1 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/librt.so.1 (0x4002b000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0x40033000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0 (0x40168000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
libpthread is available in the installer, but librt currently is not and
we'd prefer not having to add it. Is it possible for you to link in librt
statically for the udeb?
Note that if it is not, we will have to keep xfsprogs out of testing until
the next release of the installer as otherwise it would break the
upcoming Beta 3 release.
Thanks,
FJP
