I'm not sure. ISTR having seen mentioned on IRC that one of the hosts behind static hit ENOSPC. It might be that some jobs failed to detect that and are hanging forever since? (ps says started Jun 15.) Anyway, AFAICT, alioth shouldn't be on the push-to-static path. > What's the correct way to fix this? > Call DSA for this? > Or kill the processes and see what happens? > I personally feel somewhat uncomfortable doing such things ... Apparently we can only kill the master processes (which I just did), which then forks and sudoes to staticsync. I don't think child processes will notice or care, and they might hang around… I'll get in touch with debian-admin@ later today.
