Then I was faulting</p><p>my fast new NVME but eventually factored that out too by changing back to an old</p><p>hard drive. In any case, the faster the hardware and the more work running, the</p><p>more quickly and easily this seems to reproduce.</p><p><br></p><p>Typically during the phase that removes old output, the build will hang indefinitely.</p><p>Some processes continue to run but new ones never get going, and the old world</p><p>clean never makes any progress. For example ssh to the host in this state would</p><p>succeed to connect and authenticate, but the new shell never seems to run.</p><p><br></p><p>I suppose I should try disabling softdeps next.</p></body></html>
