Broken memprof package in 9.0 pro?
I tried to install memprof on SuSE 9.0, and it immediately dies with an error of libmemintercept.so not found. I can't find a mention of libmemintercept anywhere in the 9.0 rpm database, so it looks like SuSE shipped a useless memprof package. Does anyone know why SuSE did this? I'll build from source if necessary, but I don't want to waste my time if there's an issue with memintercept. Thanks, mike.

Yes, the package is broken. I'll see that I can get a fixed package being made available.

The package built correctly and no one seems to have tested it.

There's a bug in the sources or rather in the configuration stuff so a patch would be needed to fix this issue. Philipp -- Philipp Thomas <pthomas@suse.de> SUSE LINUX AG, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuremberg, Germany

Could you please report this via http://www.suse.de/feedback? This will make it an official bug report. Philipp -- Philipp Thomas <pthomas@suse.de> SUSE LINUX AG, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuremberg, Germany
