Hi all,

The linux64 build #159 ([1]) broke because of the new dictionary bundling. The reason for this break is that downloading of one extension failed (probably because one mirror was temporarily down). This is regarded as an error that leads to abortion of main/bootstrap.

There are several ways to fix this:

- Ignore the error and start building. The only drawback is that some extensions are not bundled in the install sets.

- Run bootstrap again until all extensions are downloaded.

- Add a switch to configure that handles extensions that can not be downloaded as warning, not as error.
I have the Linux64 bb set up to do a clobber on the source tree. This means that it tests the build from scratch - and we don't miss stuff because incremental builds are so much easier and quicker. My preference is to leave that build that way. I have many steps in the process set up to continue after fail - bootstrap was not set that way, because if it does not download properly, that is normally catastrophic to the build. I think it needs to stay that way. I am fine with the build being broken while we sort this out - we need to fix this in a stable way.

A.


Which one do you prefer?

Andre
