It takes more than 6 hours on my Mobile Pentium (Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.86GHz stepping 08), and one time it wasn't finished after 10 hours where I had to use the CPU time for something else and stopped it.

Normally, it's the subfont creation which takes so long (you might have noticed the four "Make yourself a cup of tea" messages, it could be as well a complete Picnic with tea and scones and someone reading poetry...). I never waited to watch the final step. It's strange that it times out after touching build-stamp, it should start the install target which only does dh_* calls. > It would be great if someone could confirm this failure. I don't see any real failure here, and therefore adjust the severity. Regards, Frank -- Dr. Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f. Biochemie, Univ.
