to be stuck at version "2:8.1.0875-5".
Someone needs to fix the testsuite on alpha:

Hi!
I just uploaded updated installation images 2019-07-22 for the
following Debian Ports architectures [1]:
* alpha
* hppa
* ia64
* m68k
* powerpc
* ppc64
* sparc64
debian-installer images for netboot and sh4 can be found in [2].
I have successfully tested the sparc64 image, but not the other images,
so the issue with the kernel module versions mismatch has been fixed.

Alpha installer errors with a mismatch between installer kernel version and archive kernel version.Are you sure about that? I just checked the CD image contents in pool-alpha/ main/l/linux/ and the udebs have the correct version number which is 5.3.9-3.
What kernel version does "uname -a" report? Did you boot your own custom kernel?
Adrian
uname -a gives: 5.3.0-2-alpha-generic and Debian 5.3.9-2 (2019-11-12). Exact error message is that no kernel modules can be found.
I'm using the ISO image from the pool, I'm installing from a CD to a raw disk on a system that does not have Linux on it.

I'm reporting the exact readout that the system gives me when I run uname -a, I don't know anything more than that and I've done nothing to the image but burn it. The error states that it is probably due to a mismatch between the kernel the installer uses and the kernel available in the archive. The installer can't see anything that isn't the same version as itself.

An example is: srm-modules-5.2.0-2-alpha-generic-di_5.2.9-2_alpha.udeb.

If it lists 5.2.9-2, you are using the wrong image.

Unfortunately, it now fails during the base system install, there seems to be something
wrong with the whiptail package. It doesn't give a specific error.
That's not going to help at the moment because vim is bd-uninstallable.
The real problem is guile-2.0 and guile-2.2, both of which FTBFS, and
are blocking the building of many other packages.
Are the build servers for Alpha public facing? I plan to test install on Alpha in a few day and having access to the code and environment could prove useful.What do you mean with "public facing"? They are on the internet, of course,

I downloaded the Debian source for "guile-2.0_2.0.13+1-5.3" and successfully built the binary packages on my PWS-433au without having to modify anything. My guess is some kind of toolchain or other build environment issue on
the "buildd" servers.
Michael -- I've got the following ".deb" packages available, and you're welcome to them if they would be of any help getting us unstuck:
guile-2.0_2.0.13+1-5.3_alpha.deb

guile-2.0-dev_2.0.13+1-5.3_alpha.deb
guile-2.0-libs-dbgsym_2.0.13+1-5.3_alpha.deb
guile-2.0-doc_2.0.13+1-5.3_all.deb
Just need a place to upload them where you can get to them, or I could
send them as e-mail attachments if all else fails: the "libs" package is
the largest at 2,262,128 bytes.

Did you build with latest toolchain? I suspect the issue has
appeared with toolchain changes (hard to pin down when because there
was quite a period in which a new version of guile-2.0 was not
uploaded).
And the bug (a segfault when texi documentation is built with the
recently built guild executable) looks to be present elsewhere too
(take a look at #941218 where comment #10 seen on Ubuntu looks
suspiciously like what we see on Alpha assuming it occurs at the
same place).
Unless built in clean chroot with only the build dependencies installed
and with an up to date toolchain they won't be much use to us.

I think I answered the toolchain question in my reply to Adrian's
earlier message. There was an attached "packages" file with the complete list of what I've got installed on the PWS.
are only loosely specified (e.g., >= some value), are the dependencies considered "best" satisfied with a stable package version meeting the requirement? Or is the current unstable version of a dependency
preferred when building for "sid"? Many variables to consider, I guess.
I don't seem to have received that message.
I am thinking I am going to have to make my own installer, since
apparently the DFSG prevent the requisite firmware going on the disk.
Taking it that you did use up to date toolchain then that is rather interesting that guile-2.0 built for you. I ran a test rebuild a
week or two ago and it failed.
Maybe I should try again, but if it fails for me again that would
raise issues of:
- UP versus SMP since I test built on an SMP system.
- sbuild environment.
I will set a test rebuild going again soon and report back.

If it's indeed an issue of UMP vs SMP again like we have for openjdk-8, we can just blacklist guile-2.0 and guile-2.2 on electro and imago and have
it built on tsunami only which is a UMP machine.

Bob: how did you get past this test or did it pass on your build?
(...) It passes more often than not and

But I don't know guile so don't understand the code.

I suggest turning this into a patch. Fixing guile-2.0 and guile-2.2 on alpha is dearly needed, so patches are really welcome.

All that being said, I'd *definitely* think twice about blindly changing
the sleep values. Again, you'll never see this issue on the "buildd" systems. If I were the package maintainer, I'd reject this patch :-).

You can dist-upgrade the system later.

Yes, I did use the previous images and it did work.The images in the date folders should be considered untested.
I just wanted to report on the new images with new kernel ;)
