So, well, 30 x 7 x 9 => about 1.9BG, yikes! The release rate got pretty high in the last 2 months cause I was teaching a course and really dove into this. > i accept that this is to a certain extend a problem with the deken > infrastructure (namely: not being able to specify dependencies). > > it's also due to my insisting that you do not remove releases from > puredata.info. > > but i think we need to do something about it. > > @porres for the time being i would like to ask you to: > - remove the live-electronics-tutorial from the "else" distribution > until you do a proper release. > - merge multiple architectures into a single package (e.g. you could > have a package containing Darwin-amd64-32, Darwin-i386-32, > Linux-amd64-32, Linux-i386-32, Linux-arm64-32 and Linux-armv8-32; and > probably Windows-i386-32 and Windows-amd64-32 too, but i didn't test as > the current uploads are broken) > this requires some changes in your build pipeline, as you would need to > use arch-specific suffixes (e.g. `l_i386` for Linux-i386-32) rather than > the generic OS-specific ones (`pd_linux` for all the Linux archs). > as there we currently don't have different suffixes for the various > 32bit arm variants, you would still need to package these separately) > > as an immediate remedy, i would even like to ask you to remove old > alpha-releases (and it breaks my heart to say that). > Ok, I'll see how to build and upload this in a better way, joining up at all raspberries versions (maybe removing one or another, cause I have FOUR right now and maybe that's just silly and not needed), both linuxes and both windowses... I had the compromise to keep around 5 of the last versions around. So I removed the one I was trying to upload and will hold it and try to do this in the new way. I removed one of the lasts and I'm keeping 5 old versions so far. cheers
