I notice you disabled the golang testsuite because it hangs on GNU/kFreeBSD. However, the problem is still present, and chances are it makes golang unusable on that platform. I gave the source a look, and it seems that on GNU/kFreeBSD golang is playing with thread primitives, bypassing libc. For example it invokes thr_new() kernel call directly, and also calls sigprocmask() to reset the signal mask in code that is clearly multithreaded [1]. This means that either golang intends to completely replace libpthread, or it intends to play along with existing libpthread. I'm not sure which one applies here, but in both cases there is a problem that needs to be fixed in golang. So please don't disable the testsuite. If golang can't be built on GNU/kFreeBSD, unless you know it's a bug in the system libraries the problem needs to be fixed in golang. If nobody can spend the time to fix it here, then you should consider not providing the package for kfreebsd-*. [1] On multithreaded programs, use of sigprocmask() is reserved to system libraries. -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
