Description Hetz Ben Hamo 2002-08-21 23:58:54 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020513

Bug related to Redhat "null" beta (couldn't find it on "version").

Description of problem:
When trying to compile arts/flow from the KDE CVS I get "Exhusted memory error"
in this directory. arts is from KDE CVS..

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.grab arts branch from KDE cvs (from HEAD which is the default)
2.do: make -f Makefile.cvs ; ./configure ; make (make sure you have QT installed)
3.When it gets into the "arts/flow" directory - I get the error
	make[2]: Entering directory `/home/kde3/arts/flow'
make[2]: *** virtual memory exhausted.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/kde3/arts/flow'


Actual Results:  Actual output:
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/kde3/arts/flow'
make[2]: *** virtual memory exhausted.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/kde3/arts/flow'

And it shouldn't - here's my output of "free"
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        514180     498260      15920          0      10508     234064
-/+ buffers/cache:     253688     260492
Swap:      1052248          0    1052248

So there's plenty of free memory - both real and swap

Expected Results:  to compile ;)

Additional info:

If needed - I can pack the arts directory (it's 1.2MB) and send it. It happends
only in the "arts/flow" directory and prior directories are compiled ok.

I'm not sure if this bug is related to gcc though, but I couldn't find any other
package which is related to this problem.

Build of arts-1.3.0 with gcc-3.3.3 doesn't exhibit this problem.
