git-annex needs to be able to git init and git clone as part of its test suite. So, it build-depends on git. Why is the freebsd buildd not letting git access /usr/share/git-core/templates/branches? Either git is badly broken on freebsd, or there is some kind of permissions problem. > Looking at older logs, 0.22 already was failing. > > And there are other FTBFSes on other architectures, apparently due to > toolchain changes. Due to #616494, a ghc bug that is still not understood, but not specific to kfreebsd or git-annex. Also, while I have your ear, it looks like kfreebsd does not have utimensat(3)? What's the closest freebsd equivilant, it needs to change the mtime of a symlink? (The build notices it's not available and disables this feature.) -- see shy jo
