The Operating Systems were upgraded on some Buildbot VMS whilst others were replaced altogether. Mostly, I see this as the OpenOffice project need to keep up to speed with Operating Systems, associated software packages for those systems and ensure that the OpenOffice software can run on ever evolving systems. Windows 7 as an example was EOL years ago and security updates no longer available. Ubuntu 12.04 the same thing. You are complaining we replaced 5 year old and 10 year old Operating systems and that this broke your builds. Builds break, upgrades of Operating Systems and their underlying software packages happen. Our build systems will always be evolving so projects must learn to cope with this and ensure their builds change with it. I would like to have all the OpenOffice builds fixed. So, please open INFRA tickets for all broken builds where you see that INFRA needs to do something - install software etc. But sitting around doing nothing is not going to get them fixed.
