Package: lintian Severity: important During the current full run, lintian.d.o ran out of inodes (1.9M). At the moment, I have disabled experimental which I hope will work around the problem for now.
Peter Palfrader (weasel) and I had a chat in #debian-admin about this. It is my understanding that our current approach is not suitable, even if we have improved a couple of things. Peter asked if we could move some of this data into a database? I thinking that things like index and file-info should fit quite nicely into a database (and with minimal effort too due to the L::Collect indirection). Personally, I think the "strings/" dir is (also?) something we should look at fairly soon. Currently it costs us 1 inode per elf binary in the package (plus some per dir needed to replicate the package layout for these elf binaries). We may even have to give up on keeping "debfiles/" extracted as well. ~Niels -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
