Greetings,
I have some doubts about using distroprefs and I could not find
information about it:
1 - Once I setup a distroprefs to skip a distribution (because it hangs
during execution, for example) the maintainer of the distribution
actually receives some information telling the distribution was skipped
to be tested? I believe that the maintainer should received some
feedback (even if the only possible thing is to use something like
Devel::AssertOS to skip unsupported OS);
2 - There is any way to keep control about when to stop skipping a
distribution? I know that regular expressions could be used to not test
a specific version, but when using a smoker probably some processing
hours will be lost when you decide to take a look and see that the same
distribution is hanging there forever.
3 - Is there any plan to create a single repository for distroprefs? We
are probably losing some synergy by using our own or grabbing some from
other testers.
Regards,
