Hi folks, I've spent a large part of the past two days reworking and documenting our release packaging environment and fixing issues with our metadata and external packages that are being imported into this release, and I feel we have a sustainable environment for release management now. I've gotten a tentatively complete set of oi_148 packages created with an entire redistributable cluster this time and imported the SVR4-based consolidations we don't yet have replacements for, instead of including opensolaris.org packages in our incorporations. If this went as planned, our users should no longer need an opensolaris.org publisher configured.
I've built a full redistributable cluster (as well as a slim_install metapackage) instead of the weird mini cluster we had for 147. The packages are sitting in /net/infra01/releng/oi/oi_148/repo which still needs to be imported into a clone of the 147 repository. Hopefully we can get some testing done over the weekend. Some additional things I want to do before the release: - Make sure I haven't made any typos in the metadata, like last time :) - Create a text_install cluster for the Text Installer (its current use of an explicit package list is quite embarrassing). - Get QA done against the bugs we have on file - Build and test both live media and AI images - Start looking at the logistics for the illumos repository. One option is to ship an older build of illumos we have around, but we need to integrate the supporting changes for snmpdx and Perl 5.8.4 removal as soon as possible. -Albert _______________________________________________ oi-dev mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/oi-dev
