and subject line Re: Bug#1017845: New upload should resolve native compilation
fork bomb problem
has caused the Debian Bug report #1017845,
regarding emacs: new release seems to have funny ideas about byte-compiling
process
to be marked as done.
This means that you claim that the problem has been dealt with.
If this is not the case it is now your responsibility to reopen the
Bug report if necessary, and/or fix the problem forthwith.

Package: emacs

Severity: important

I haven't dug into the guts of the installation process to try and
identify what's happening as yet so this is an inference, but it seems
like the byte-compilation phase is tossing off (or equivalent to) a
"make -j" without any sort of awareness of the number of processors in a
system. I am observing hundreds of attempts to batch-compile in
parallel, and naturally my system starts thrashing badly and killing
processes. I imagine this should eventually finish, but I wouldn't
presume to guess how long it would take!
(Also a bit surprised this hasn't already been reported, and thus afraid
it's some quirk of my installation, but if not it's *got* to be biting
some other folks as least as badly.)

Excellent. Thank you for testing.

Not quite sure what you have in mind here. I'm going ahead and closing.

Right, that'll be something about Lisp changes in the new relesae.
