Package: lmbench
Version: 2.0-patch2-4
Severity: important
I tried to run lmbench on my SPARCstation 20, and when the configuration
script runs, the binaries included with the package won't execute:
=====================================================================
Hang on, we are calculating your timing granularity.
./config-run: line 47: /usr/lib/lmbench/msleep: cannot execute binary
file
./config-run: line 48: /usr/lib/lmbench/enough: cannot execute binary
file
OK, it looks like you can time stuff down to usec resolution.
Hang on, we are calculating your timing overhead.
./config-run: line 53: /usr/lib/lmbench/msleep: cannot execute binary
file
./config-run: line 54: /usr/lib/lmbench/timing_o: cannot execute binary
file
OK, it looks like your gettimeofday() costs usecs.
Hang on, we are calculating your loop overhead.
./config-run: line 59: /usr/lib/lmbench/msleep: cannot execute binary
file
./config-run: line 60: /usr/lib/lmbench/loop_o: cannot execute binary
file
OK, it looks like your benchmark loop costs usecs.
=====================================================================
So I investigate further, and find out that the binaries are built for
sparc64:
/usr/lib/lmbench/msleep: ELF 64-bit MSB executable, SPARC V9, version 1
(SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.4.18, dynamically linked (uses shared libs),
stripped
Compiling the package from source seems to work, but runs into the same
problem with namespace collisions as in bug #260792 when I try to
install the resulting .deb.
