Pursuant to the wiki instructions, I have made a buildbot entry

E: Failed to fetch http://buildbot.linuxcnc.org/dists/stretch/InRelease

No arm64 builds yet?
That is correct, the buildbot doesn't build/test/package on arm64 yet.
The reason for that is that we don't have any arm64 buildslaves.
We do have a couple of armhf (32-bit) buildslaves, running on Odroid U3
machines. They are super flaky and unreliable and account for about 90%
of the headaches the buildbot produces.
I don't want to add any more flaky little machines to take care of.
What I want is a server-class arm64 board with several CPUs and a couple
of gigs of RAM per CPU, to run virtual armhf and arm64 buildslaves on,
just like how the x86 and amd64 buildslaves are managed. 8 CPUs and 16
GB RAM would be comfortable.
Does anyone have first-hand experience with any hardware like that?
git won't update the clone I did back in October last year. Claims the
Makefile has been modified. Of course it has, its been configured and
built when jessie was installed. But now its got stretch on it, running
xfce, surprisingly nicely. But it was a week of hell getting that far.
But now that I know how, next time s/b easy.
So how do I proceed?
The configure script doesn't modify the Makefile, it creates non-tracked
files that the Makefile reads. Any modifications to the Makefile must
have been manual or accidental. You can see the contents of the change
with this command:
> git diff src/Makefile
If the changes aren't important to you and you want to throw them away,
use this command:
> git checkout src/Makefile
After that, see if there's anything else changed in your working tree:
> git status
If it's all clean, you can move forward with:
> git fetch origin
> git merge --ff-only origin/master
(Assuming you're on master and you want to stay on master.)
