python-psutil patch failing test suite

[Barry deFreese <bdefreese@debian.org>]

Hi again,

Here is another patch that I could use some help with.  I was essentially trying to cheat by just
using the posix files.  It does allow the package to build, however it fails the test suites because
_EXTRA_ALL isn't defined.

I was going to copy the _pslinux and _psutil_linux files to something like _psgnu and _psutil_gnu.
However, the linux code relies a lot on /proc and uses /proc/cpuinfo which we don't have.

The other option would be to try to use the _psbsd and _psutil_bsd files.

I am open to suggestions or help..

Thanks!

Barry deFreese
