Hi, I am having some problems with the build server hanging (ie. there are no jobs running, but when I submit a job it sits with status 'waiting')...

Since this is running on EL4 (python 2.3.4), I'm getting this message when I start up plague-builder:

WARNING: You might want to install the pthread_sigmask module. Python versions earlier than 2.4 have problems with signals and spawned processes.

I'm guessing this is related to my problem :) So the question is, where can I find this module?

I haven't quite gotten around to putting it in extras yet, but you can grab the srpm here:

Great, thank you. I'll give it a try.
