not actually a question, but a solution that i found while compiling php on the 256 droplet running arch linux 2012-09. there wasn’t enough memory for gcc to compile and would fail with an obscure error.
cc: internal compiler error: Killed (program cc1) Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate. See https://bugs.archlinux.org/ for instructions. make: *** [ext/date/lib/parse_date.lo] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs…
i then looked at the memory configuration and found there was no swap file configured for the droplet. i followed this guide to configure a swap file within my droplet:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Swap
my php compilation is humming along just fine now :-)
