[edit] Meeting on June 4th 2012

Logs

  • X-Fade reports on progress with Maemo OBS
    • Found a bug in gcc that was causing high VM usage in some compiles.
    • The new OBS can use targeted gcc versions, but may cause issues.
    • SB2 setup is on-going. We have contact with the maintainer and may have a sub-optimal but functional deb version soon.
  • Javispedro notes there are issues with SB2.3 pre building in Fremantle. He created a patch that gets around it, but it should be fixed up stream if possible.
  • Also noted, SB2 has different paths for it's toolchain (vs SB1).
  • Q&A session with X-Fade and Javispedro about current state and issues around OBS.
  • Javispedro will likely be out for two meetings after next week (18th/25th).

[edit] Q & A about OBS (taken from various meeting minutes)

Q: What are the current roadblocks?
A: Getting bootstrapping for SB2 is currently on-going, which just takes time & experimentation. Authentication of OBS is also an issue, as it requires moving the user database to LDAP.

Q: Will the new OBS be slower than the old system?
A: It shouldn't be, as a large part of the build will be done via cross-compile instead of emulated local compile.

Q: Will maintainership issues be easier with OBS?
A: Yes, as OBS has a more granular ACL system that allows permissions to be broken up. It's far more script-able than the current system.
