I am having some odd problems on an all-FC4 set of systems which I'm
tempted to attribute to NFS.
1. Attempts to compile a large package stored on an NFS-mounted home
directory threw gcc errrors which were clearly due to the file being
corrupted when read from the server: odd unprintable characters in the
error message which were not in the original file, for example.
2. I have a local yum archive mounted via NFS, and after doing the
equivalent of the following via a script:
cp new-package.rpm /my-local-archive
createrepo my-local-archive
yum install new-package
yum complains that the package fails its checksum test. A second,
immediate, manual "yum install new-package" works fine.
There's nothing definite or reproducible enough here to warrant a
bugzilla entry, but has anyone seen anything like this before?
