Upgrading from acct-6.5.1 to 6.5.4 renders all reported information useless. Specifically, it went from this: 15274 830.76re 1.49cp 0avio 3310k 15 129.96re 0.67cp 0avio 17217k ***other* 4 2.17re 0.27cp 0avio 36064k emerge 5 108.50re 0.19cp 0avio 10597k vim 534 0.33re 0.17cp 0avio 6152k cc1 70 0.04re 0.02cp 0avio 8034k filter-bash-env 856 0.60re 0.02cp 0avio 2972k sh 3 0.49re 0.02cp 0avio 4690k configure to: 15212 nanre nancp nanavio 3313k 2445 nanre nancp nanavio 4679k configure* 1696 nanre nancp nanavio 4182k sh* 1350 nanre nancp nanavio 2752k sed 1324 nanre nancp nanavio 1653k rm 1211 nanre nancp nanavio 1704k cat 851 nanre nancp nanavio 2973k sh 585 nanre nancp nanavio 1712k gcc Notice all of the "NAN" values? This is the result of a very bad patch from RedHat, at least part of which can be found in upstream's CVS (http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/acct/sa.c?root=acct&r1=1.28&r2=1.29). Backing out this revision will restore functionality. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade to acct-6.5.4 2. /etc/init.d/acct report 3. Notice useless NAN'd data. Actual Results: Useless data reported (improperly calculated statistics because of bad math). Expected Results: Good math. (No division by zero. :-)
Created attachment 234451 [details, diff] Undo RedHat's broken patch to sa.c and restore functionality.
-r2 fixes a major regression since 6.5.1, so I think it's important to get rid of the buggy -r0 as quickly as possible. Arch teams, please test and mark stable: =sys-process/acct-6.5.4-r2 Target KEYWORDS="alpha amd64 hppa ppc x86"

Stable for HPPA PPC.
