[Debian] Bug#728173: ploop: FTBFS on non-x86: misses fallocate, syncfs syscall numbers

[Ola Lundqvist]

severity 728173 important
thanks

Hi Kir

I have a question about ploop and vzctl.

The question is regarding architecture support in the kernel. What
architectures have working ploop and/or vzctl support in the openvz patched
kernel?

vzctl is currently built for: i386, amd64, ia64, powerpc and sparc
ploop is possible to build for i386 and amd64.

I raise this question as there is a problem to have a build dependency on
ploop if ploop can not be built for the same (or more) architectures as
vzctl.

Cheers

// Ola
