No, it made no difference. In fact it was the kernel compilation. I had used the light ramfs version of tmpfs. However apparently python requires the full shmem version... It bails out at this point of the strace: statfs("/run/shm", {f_type=0x858458f6, f_bsize=4096, f_blocks=0, f_bfree=0, f_ba vail=0, f_files=0, f_ffree=0, f_fsid={0, 0}, f_namelen=255, f_frsize=4096}) = 0 read(12, "", 1024) = 0 close(12) = 0 munmap(0x33c24e61000, 4096) = 0 futex(0x33c325d6330, FUTEX_WAKE_PRIVATE, 2147483647) = 0 write(2, "Traceback (most recent call last"..., 35Traceback (most recent call la st): The kernel did have /run/shm and /run mounted as tmpfs, and did have futex but it's not enough. Sorry about the noise. I'll close the bug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
