Re: Long Compile time with version 2.19.44

[Andrew Bernard]

Hi Johan,

Th OP is on Windows where there is no strace, I don’t think. However, I suspect you are on the right track. I attempted to build Frescobaldi 2.19.latest-whatever a while ago on several Linux distros and gave up after a few weeks of frustration due to the complex Qt code timing out in, sure enough., network calls to sockets. So something related to this has arisen in the 2.19 series. Not being particularly fond of Python programming and knowing nothing at Qt, I abandoned the work.

Looks like a job for strace to pinpoint the exact place where the process
stalls.

My intuition is that someone is making a network call that times out.
The delay is much too big for caching, even swapping.
Could be DNS, or maybe someone is trying to 'phone home', ...
