Re: [Soc-coordination] GSoC begins, some important information
Hi. My project is the Automated Multi-Arch cross-building and bootstrapping one. I'm going to concentrate on circular dependencies breaking and making a tool to sequence bootstrap builds. In the past weeks I studied about the related documentation available at debian wiki and other internet sites. I don't have so much things to write about this because I was just understanding all the documentations and definitions related to the problem. As a conclusion of this first step I may say that I am very interested in the project. I don't have all the stuffs clearly in my mind but I hope I understood the main things. Also I'm glad to see that the debian/ubuntu community is very helpful. Currently I am doing I bash script that returns the build sequence of a given package and its dependencies. If the sequence has a cycle, it will return the dependency graph. I had some problems using xdeb to make the cross-build because xdeb needs the source of the packages. To solve this problem, I am going to try a patch. The following step is to use the script to find the loops of a given set of packages needed to bootstrap Debian in a given architecture and so brake the cycles. Finally, I'm going to be able to make a tool to automate the bootstrap process.

[Soc-coordination] Report #2 - Automated Multi-Arch Cross-Building and Bootstrapping
Project: Automated Multi-Arch Cross-Building and Bootstrapping Report #2 - Jun 6th to Jun 20 The main objective of the project is to produce a tool to sequence the bootstrapping of a Debian system. This tool should be able to bootstrap any architecture (armel, mips, amd64, etc) of the repository. The main problem is to break the cyclic dependencies of important bootstrap packages. The report #1 may be found on [0]. The description of the project may be found on [1]. 1) What I have done since the begining Here I'm just going to summing up the main things I have done since the begining of the GSoC: --- Got introduced to the involved persons of the community, --- Read the documentation related with the project --- Defined the main objective of the project --- Finished a bash script to automate the process of find cycles and determines the build order of non-cyclic packages 2) What I have done in the past two weeks --- I used the deboostrap command to generate a list of a base debian system. With this list I did some tests with my bash script to find the cycles i should break. In a conversation with Wookey, we decided that use the package list generated by the debootstrap command as a reference of which packages we should work on is interesting. --- The bash script uses xdeb [2] to find the cycles. I was having some problems because xdeb normally search for source it e packages instead of binary package. To solve this problem Wookey told me to use the xdeb provided in [3] that are able to search for binary packages too. It is important to also search for binary packages because debootstrap gives a list that include binary packages. --- The bash script was producing a very big graph because it generates a graph including all packages the are involved in the dependencies of a given package. The solution we found was to generate the strong conected graph. In this way just the packages involved on the cycles are going to appears on the graph. This step is still under development. 3) Next steps --- Improve the gen-dep-graph.sh so it can download the sources of the packages --- Break all cycles of the list produced by debootstrap 4) References [0] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/soc-coordination/2011-June/001007.html [1] http://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2011/AutomatedBootstrapping/GustavoAlkmim [2] https://code.launchpad.net/~wookey/xdeb/ [3] https://code.launchpad.net/~wookey/xdeb/allowbinaries Cheers, Gustavo Prado Alkmim Master Student at Unicamp/Brazil ___ Soc-coordination mailing list Soc-coordination@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/soc-coordination
[Soc-coordination] Report 1 - Bootstrappable Debian - Gustavo Alkmim
Hello, My name is Gustavo Alkmim and I'm working on the project Bootstrappable Debian [0]. In few words, the objective of this project is to enable the automated bootstrap of new Debian ports. To accomplish that a tool to manage the bootstrap process should be done and some packages needs to be patched to enables the correctly crossbuild and the use of the multiarch capabilities. I did a report for every week since the beginning of the project. I will summarize them below. The complete reports can be found in [1], [2], [3] and [4]. Week 1 (May 27 - June 03). In this week the objective was to prepare the toolchain to enable the crossbuilding in practice. This resulted in the toolchain that can be found in [5]. Week 2 (June 03 - June 10). The objective of this week was to raise up what are the packages that I have to make patchs and fill bugs for them in the next weeks. So, I have to define which packages of the minimal-build-system is ready for crossbuild, which are arch:all (and we don't need to crossbuild), which packages we need to crossbuild to satisfy all buld-dependencies and which are multiarch:foreign (and we don't need to crossbuild). As a result of this week, I created a document with tables to datail the currently stat of the importante packages for the bootstrap problem. This document can be found in [6]. The script at [7] was used to generate it Week 3 (June 10 - June 17). The objective was to add the metadata information needed to enable the theorical crossbuild of all packages in the self contained repository. The metadata information was added to the packages and now the theoretical crossbuild of the minimal system is possible. The package list and source list used in this step was [8] and [9]. The patch containing the modifications to the package list is in [10]. An updated document with tables datailing the state of the important packages for the bootstrap process in this phase is in [11]. Week 4 (June 17 - June 24). The objective until yesterday was to Test if the sources of the Self contained repository can be crossbuilt using the new inserted metadata information. Actually, following the schedule of the project [0], this is what I have to do until July 29. This step includes patches to solve cycles and solve crossbuild problems on some packages. In this week I had good discussions with josch, wookey and pehjota on how I should do this in practice. I'm going to choose an unstable debian snapshot that doesn't have conflicts due to different versions of packages for armel and amd64 packages. I would like to thanks josch, wookey and pehjota for the efforts on help me and give me veru good advices.

[Soc-coordination] Automated Bootstrap - Report 4 - Gustavo Alkmim
Hi Guys. Below is the report of this week. Sorry for the delay. I had problems with my internet. Report 4 - Week 7. In this week I could not dedicated too much time for the GSoC project because it was the last week before the begining of the vacation in the University. Starting from this week I'm gonna have full time for the project. This week I set up a local repository using reprepro and tested the sbuild environ- ment that i'm going to use in to crossbuild the packages. Also we had a meeting on IRC with the people of the mips64 port GSoC project in order to avoid duplicated work, since we both are going to crossbuild packages in file bugs as needed. Also we conclude start to project the automated bootstrap tool that I'm going to build. For the next week, the main objective is to finish the project of the automated tool.

[Soc-coordination] Gustavo Alkmim - Reports 5 and 6 - Automated Bootstrap Tool
Hi Guys. At first I want to apologize for sent both reports together, but as I explained to the coordination I was getting married and that was driving me crazy... (Now I'm married and everything is fine again). Sorry for the delay. This won't happen again Week 8 - Report 5 In this week we discussed about how the automated bootstrap tool is going to work. I started with a draft shell script of the tool [0]. I'm going to summarize the main conclusions of our discussion: 1) The automated bootstrap tool should be write on perl or python due to its complexity. Since I didn't know perl I learned it during the week 2) The automated bootstrap tool should be able to run in two modes: one using the output list of botch to know what crossbuild and one that just looks at what is out of date (source newer than binaries) in the repository. 3) The build packages list should come from the repository. Access to the repository should be over http, so it can be moved to a shared server easily, and it works inside chroots. It should use wget to get the packages file locally for botch to use. The host packages list should be got from the repo- sitory (if we want to know what can be done in an exactly moment) or from a conversion of the build package list (if we want to determine the full build order.) 4) The automated bootstrao tool should be non-interactive 5) An auxiliar script to automatically add the Multi-Arch: foreign field when requested is desirable. This script should get the sources, add the Multi-Arch: foreign field (or warning if an multi-arch field is already present), build the new sources, upload it to the new repository and generate a patch using debdiff. Week 9 - Report 6 In this Week I got married (specifically on July, 20th). In the rest of the week I was in an academic congress presenting a paper and in my honeymoon with my wife. So I just had time to work on the GSoC on thursday. I worked on the auxiliar script to automatically add the Multi-Arch: foreign field. I also learned more about perl and the modules to help working with debian packages.

[Soc-coordination] Gustavo Alkmim - Reports 7 - Automated Bootstrap Tool
Week 10 - Report 7 In this week advanced on the development of the the auxiliar script to automatically add the Multi-Arch: foreign field. The main steps of the process is implemented. What have to be finished is the upload it to the new repository and generation of the patch step. Also, I start the development of the Automated Bootstrap Tool using perl. The core of the tool is almost done. In the next week I pretend to finish the first version of the auxiliar script and the Automated Bootstrap Tool.

[Soc-coordination] Gustavo Alkmim - Report 2 - Improve Debian port on mipsel
Hello, I'm working on the project Improve one of the Debian MIPS ports [0]. In few words, the objective of this project is to fix broken packages of Debian port on mipsel, so that the quality of debian in these architectures can be improved. Below is a summary of what I did last week: - Set up an online repository [1] with the files related with this project. Sorry, I am using port 3000 because I'm having problems on accept external connections to port 80 on my router. I will try to fix that next week. - Made a crawler script to give me the broken packages from buildd [2]. - Opened bug #787844 [3] for package kafkacat version 1.2.0-1. The problem was that dh_auto_clean was calling the makefile before its dependencies has being generated. I worked on a patch [4] and sent it to the bug thread [5]. The bug was closed [6]. I would like to thanks the maintainer Vincent Bernat (in copy) which was very responsiveness. - Opened bug #787862 [7] for package pdf-presenter-console version 4.0.0-1. In the buildd, the error found in the logs was a Singal 11 (segmentation fault) from cmake. I tried to reproduce the bug several times on my CI20 board, but I got a successful build every time. I Suggested to re-run the build on buildd in the bug thread [8]. Got no answer from maintainer so far. Bug is still opened. According to the original schedule [0] this week was to focus on fixing bugs. So, we are up-to-date with the schedule. Next steps: - Keep working on bug #787862. - Open new bugs for still broken packages and fix then.

It will help me a lot on the build process. - Investigated the CI20 Guides to understand more about the board. - Set up of the build environment. I'm using sbuild [3] since it is used in the official buildd network and schroot [4] since it makes easier the configuration of chroot environments. - Started analyzing the buildd reports [5]. I did not made patches neither file bugs yet. I will start this next week. This week I could not work on the project since I am on a travel and my Internet Connection is really bad. I'm sorry about that. In the following weeks I will compensate this lost time. Next steps: Start working on the bugs.

Sorry about that. Below is a summary of the current status of each bug: - Bug #788680 [2] for package openni version 1.5.4.0-12: I sent the patch for the bug on thread, on message [3]. Patch is available in [4]. I did not receive an answer yet. I will ask the maintainers about that. - Opened bug #789881 [5] for package z3 version 4.4.0-1. During the dh_auto_build, the header emmintrin.h is not being find. Building it without using debian sources worked fine. Probably it is something with the dh_override_auto_configure rule. I'm still investigating the problem. - Opened bug #790327 [6] for package openturns version 1.5-7. The package is not being built due to a restriction on debian/rules that packages with 1GB should not built on mips/mipsel. I tried to build it without this restrictions and it got killed (probably due to lack of memory). I'm tryed to build with a swap file and It got killed again. I will investigate about this restriction on mips/mipsel devices. Dejan Latinovic sent me an email with some suggestions about how to approach this bug. According to the original schedule [0] this week was to focus on fixing bugs. So, we are up-to-date with the schedule.

[Soc-coordination] Gustavo Alkmim - Report 8 - Improve Debian port on mipsel
Hello, I'm working on the project Improve one of the Debian MIPS ports [0]. In few words, the objective of this project is to fix broken packages of Debian port on mipsel, so that the quality of debian in these architectures can be improved. An online repository with all the relevant files of the project can be found here [1]. I started the Week 8 trying to upgrade my ci20 kernel to the latest version of the repository. The factory was on version revision 00096 and the repository on version 12465. Unfortunately, I got an invalid kernel format as soon as I boot the ci20. I spent the rest of the week trying to make it work with the new kernel. In the end of the week I was able to make it up, with the help of the GPIO uart mapping. I did not have any progress in bugs, since I was focused on make the ci20 board working again. Sorry for this inconvenience. Now that the kernel is up and running, I will be able to continue the work on the following weeks. Next week: - Ask maintainers about bugs #788680, #790327 and #788801 . - Open new bugs for still broken packages.
