Public bug reported: It would be nice to receive progress during long dpkg-deb -c time.
Specifically, we have dbgsym builds of kenrels that are 6GB+ in size and take more time to compress than builder timeouts. If dpkg-deb were to produce output during such long compression times, it would have been very nice. I'm thinking something along the lines of piping temp compression files through pv for regular output. Or something of the sort. ** Affects: dpkg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1966238 Title: progress during dpkg-deb build To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/1966238/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
