SI questions
I've got a built LSB-si for Itanium. It's using
gcc 3.1 and binutils 2.12.1.
I've run the 1.1.9 testsuite against it, with
quite a lot of failures; but it seems roughly
comparable to what I see for an SI built from
the same sources on ia32.
Before we gather today, some questions/comments from that
- bin86 won't build. Why is bin86 even in this?
- MAKDEV doesn't make /dev/shm - at least that's
who I presume needs to make that.
- is it our plan to turn the SI into a "certified
implementation"? That sounds like a lot of
work, based on the test results I've seen.
- if the SI is to be used to host (for testing)
applications such as Samba and rsync, it's going
to need a bit more networking support - at the
very least, /etc/services and /etc/protocols
ought to be provided.
- since /etc/install_initd and /etc/remove_initd
are in the spec, they need to be provided
- how are we going to get the X libraries into
the SI?
