When I tried to build a multimedia/2mandvd package with poudriere (either bulk or testport) in a FreeBSD 10 amd64 host and jail, pkg-static segfaults. Portsmon also sees this failure, which also seems to be affecting head/amd64 as well: <http://portsmon.freebsd.org/portoverview.py?category=multimedia&portname=2mandvd&wildcard=> If I run poudriere jail -i to keep the jail around, I don't see any leftover core files, I'm guessing because pkg-static's cwd is in the r/o /usr/ports tree. If I then cd /usr/ports/multimedia/2mandvd in the jail and run: make clean make stage make package pkg-static doesn't segfault, but it never exits either. I left it running for a couple of days and it was still stuck at 100% CPU. If I truss -p the process, I don't get any output, which means it's not doing any syscalls. I tried attaching gdb to the process, but got some strange error messages that I didn't understand. I then ran pkg-static under gdb with the same command line arguments and it still looped forever. I interrupted it to get a stack trace, but that wasn't helpful because the executable was stripped. If I run pkg instead of pkg-static, it seems to work properly. I was hoping to gather some more information to file a bug report, but haven't had time to work on this in the last week.
