I found a dozen matches for 'dpkg-shlibdeps: error': y/yapet/0.8~pre2-1/s390x_1322439632_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: dpkg-query --control-path libgcc1 symbols died from signal 11 v/vips/7.28.2-1+b1/s390x_1333573321_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: dpkg-query --control-path libjpeg8:s390x symbols died from signal 11 t/timemachine/0.3.3-1/s390x_1322675528_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: dpkg-query --control-path libglib2.0-0 symbols died from signal 11 o/openscenegraph/3.0.1-3/s390x_1331737417_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: dpkg-query --control-path libc6 shlibs died from signal 6 g/gnat-gps/5.0-10/s390x_1337451822_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: objdump died from signal 11 g/gdal/1.9.0-3/s390x_1338917204_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: dpkg-query --control-path libdapclient3:s390x shlibs died from signal 11 f/firebird2.5/2.5.2~svn+54698.ds4-1/s390x_1341081509_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: dpkg-query --control-path libicu48:s390x symbols died from signal 11 e/evolution/3.2.2-1+b1/s390x_1336510533_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: dpkg-query --control-path libebook-1.2-12 symbols died from signal 6 Not all of these contain a Perl backtrace. I'm not sure how clearly this is Perl crashing vs. something else. Two separate issues seem improbable, though. Applying the same method to all the other architectures too, ranging back 180 days from now, gives the additional e/evolution/3.4.3-1/s390_1340147597_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: dpkg-query --control-path libnss3:s390 symbols died from signal 6 l/llvm-3.1/3.1-2/s390_1341191288_log.bz2:dpkg-shlibdeps: error: dpkg-query --control-path libstdc++6:s390 symbols died from signal 6 so this failure mode seems to be specific to s390* unless I goofed up some way. This isn't exhaustive as some of the failures (like shogun, mentioned in this bug) were not given back before a new source upload superseded them. I can't see any way to determine all failed builds on buildd.debian.org without reading all the logs in; the best thing I found is /srv/buildd.debian.org/db/log which I'm using as an index. FWIW I can't see any clear correlation between the buildd host and the failure rate so a hardware problem seems to be out of the picture. Cc'ing the s390 list in case somebody has clever ideas. This is unreproducible so far; if somebody can reproduce it reliably, please take a snapshot of the whole system or something before it goes away. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
