[Bug 611019] Re: Gracefully handle unavailability of fallocate system call

 

Adding notes from our conversation so others that run into a problem
with Debian Lenny can temporarily fix their system.

1) Bare Installation of Lenny
2) apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
3) apt-get install build-essential gettext
4) apt-get install git git-core
5) apt-get install autoconf automake cvs gtk-doc-tools libncurses5-dev
6) Install util-linux-ng from source (in order to upgrade glibc):  <======================== THIS IS THE TRUE PROBLEM
    git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/util-linux-ng/util-linux-ng.git util-linux-ng
    cd util-linux-ng
    sh autogen.sh
    ./configure && make && make install
7) Add unstable sources to /etc/apt/sources.list. 
8) apt-get install python2.6 python2.6-dev bzr python-setuptools
9) easy_install virtualenv simplejson greenlet
10) Follow the steps at http://wiki.openstack.org/LifeWithBzrAndLaunchpad to get swift
11) Create a virtualenv then install simplejson, greenlet and webob (at a minimum)
