The scheduler manages to distribute tasks between the two machines with this (wrong) platform tag. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This still requires that the scheduler is run from an openSUSE 12.1 machine (the 12.2 one crashes, as explained). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=789056 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=789056#c4 --- Comment #4 from Cristian Tibirna <tibirna@kde.org> 2013-01-15 13:33:41 UTC --- Executive: see https://plus.google.com/u/0/111819875765833190143/posts/fD8iuE5TKvx for some details. Unfortunately I created this report in bad form, including two bugs in a single report. So, if you speak of 1) (the crash of the scheduler) the workaround for me was to move it to a OpenSUSE 12.1 machine. I didn't test the upgrades for OpenSUSE 12.2 since (this is a production network with tens of users). If you want to work around 2), that is not really a bug. It's rather an inconvenience, as it introduces unwaranted (and arbitrary) differences between machines perceivable as being the same platform (linux kernel 3.+) but which in the icecream package of OpenSUSE 12.1/Fedora/whatever are called "x86-64" and in the icecream package of OpenSUSE 12.2 are called "Linux3_x86_64". I must acknowledge that from a technical point of view, this modification makes probably sense (the patch introducing this change invokes differences in the kernel API introduced with the version 3), but given that it is "parochial" and non-retroactive (i.e. applies to OpenSUSE 12.2 only), it burns the users for which icecream simply stops to work without error message or warning upon installation of OpenSUSE 12.2. Now, for your questions (sorry for the rambling). The installation of cross-x86_64 is to be done on the OpenSUSE-12.2 workstation(s) that work(s) as an icecream compilation client node. The ICECC_VERSION variable has to point to the newly installed cross-x86_64 package (see the URL above). Hope this helps. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
