Hi all,
could people running rpm2hml on Solaris boxen help Jason ?
As explained, it seems to break when indexing large archives
As far as I can tell this seems a solaris only bug. This could be
related to the "infamous" qsort on solaris problem. I don't really
have a way to test rpm2html on Solaris and large archives.
I received various patches/suggestions to turn around the problem
but we are still failing to get a running version for Jason. If
someone has a working binary, a good patch or a good qsort implementation
which could be added to the rpm2html source, that would be very welcome !
thanks
Daniel
