compile of svn

[Jesus Arocho-2]

Compile of svn version went well on this amd machine.  The same svn compile
failed on a pentium unit.  Ran make on the libs directory and the machine
freezes; cannot even access the other sessions to recover.  Repeated three
times to make sure.  Did not see any errors when I ran ./configure.

First: great that it works on one machine!
Now, if you follow precisely the  same steps on a different
machine, which uses the same linux distribution, then this
might either be  Intel vs. AMD problem  (unlikely,
especially during compile, in my opinion), or
some other problem like out of memory (RAM) or out of disk-space?

At what point does the machine freeze?
What does `top` output during the compile (in particular:
CPU usage, memory usage, swap)?

You might be able to ge a hint by running the make comand via
  make | tee log_make_digikam.txt

This will output the messages both on screen and in the file.
If it hangs again, you could at least see the place until
which  the make got in the log file.

Good luck!

Arnd

Strange, I tried again yesterday and this time the machine did not freeze.  
Libs and graphics compiled ok.  This was after three consecutive freezes
where I had to reboot.  Program is running fine, but I have to wonder what is
going on.
