Hi Wido/Hugo/Noa,
I see the latest changes for packaging is not present under ASF packaging
branch. I tried to clone
https://github.com/noaresare/incubator-cloudstack/commits/packaging to track
the changes which are happening at present. I tried executing
packaging/centos63/package.sh but it doesn't produce any result. Could you
please let us know the status on that?
Thanks,

+1 - knowing where things stand with packaging would be very helpful!
Not that further at this point. This Friday we are all meeting up in
Belgium during Build a Cloud day and then we want to make some good
progress.
I'm not up to date with the CentOS packagging, but for Debian/Ubuntu you
should run "dpkg-buildpackage"

Hi all,
During the IRC meeting today Chip asked me if I could update the list
about the packaging progress since it's important for the 4.1 release.
Yes, we are aware that Apache projects do source releases, but having
the stuff in place to actually generate working packages is something
we should do imho.
Anyway, my $dayjob is taking a lot of time and I didn't get to this.
But since Chip pointed me to it again I picked it up again and worked
on it a bit the last 2 hours.
The packages are now prefixed with cloudstack-* instead of cloud. This
is to prevent any name conflicts with other packages and also to make
it more clear.

This is still very early work and the packages are not in a state yet
where they can be used, it's just for testing.
I'm aware that the feature freeze for 4.1 is coming up and QA for 4.1
has to start. Having good packages will make QA much easier. The
upgrade path from
4.0 to 4.1 will also have to be tested which is more complex due to
the package renaming and squashing. (less packages).
The current progress can be tracked at:
https://github.com/noaresare/incubator-cloudstack/commits/packaging
Great, we'll stalk it!
As you can see, we've been kind of idle.
Next week Hugo, Noa and I will meet up at Build A Cloud Day in Belgium
and hopefully we can make some good progress that day.
Happy hacking, hope to see some debs.
We need to handle is fix rpm build as well because of some new artifacts,
plugins and we will have more of those when javelin merges.
Regards.

Hi all,
I was contacted by Noa Resare from Spotify (you might have seen him
on the mailinglist) regarding the Ubuntu and Debian packaging progress.
He volunteered to help with fixing this packaging the right way, but
we stumbled upon the problem that he doesn't have commit rights, this
prevented us from working in the "packaging" branch.
After a Skype conversation yesterday we decided to fork the
CloudStack repo on Github[0] and work there.
I know it's preferred that development stays at the ASF repo, but it
would mean that Noa would have to sent everything in patches to me
and I'd have to apply them.
With this e-mail I want to let people know that we are working on
CLOUDSTACK-756 [1] on that Github repo.
Afterwards we'll rebase and merge everything into master so that we
have new and shiny packages for the 4.1 release without WAF.
I'll make sure we'll keep Hugo in the loop since he's doing the RPM
packaging which shares a lot with the DEB packaging.
Questions or remarks?
Wido
