Hi,
While trying to fix ruby-rails-assets-highlightjs #919846 and enable
autopkgtest, I stumbled upon a problem:
when running the smoke-test, or rake assets:precompile, the process
eats
is stalled for several minutes. When I have patience to let it go to
the
end, it ends with the following kind of error.
± rake assets:precompile
rake aborted!
Errno::ELOOP: Too many levels of symbolic links - Failed to watch
"/usr/lib/llvm-6.0/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/Debug+Asserts/build/include/llvm/IRReader"
/tmp/foo/config/environment.rb:5:in `<main>'
Tasks: TOP => environment
(See full trace by running task with --trace)
(the autopkgtest run in lxc ends with an error saying it tries to read
/usr/lib/ssl/private...)
It happens also with the simplest example:
$ rails new foo
$ cd foo
$ rake assets:clean
it seems to search files on the whole filesystem, and not just where
it
should.
I can't find the origin of the problem. Can someone with Rails
expertise
could look at it?
