[Pkg-phototools-devel] Bug#823553: openexr: FTBFS in testing: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable

severity 823553 important
thanks

This problem happens when running stretch, including the kernel in stretch.

The problem goes away by setting "DefaultTasksMax=infinity" in
/etc/systemd/system.conf.

I'm downgrading this for now because it's not clear which package is to blame.

But even if this ends up being a bug in systemd, I wonder why does
this package need to simulate a nearly-fork-bomb to ensure that the
program built ok.

Thanks.
