FWIW I asked about this last week on #fedora-releng, and the thought was that it's not enough packages to be worth it yet: <dmalcolm> is there a (very) rough ETA on when the mass rebuild is likely to be done? I'm may want a custom build target for getting Python 3.3 into F18: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Python_3.3 <dgilmore> dmalcolm: when its done <dmalcolm> :) <dgilmore> dmalcolm: probably by the end of the weekend <dmalcolm> ah; thanks! <nirik> well, lets see... 3 days and we have done what... 5k or so? <nirik> well, 2 days I guess. <nirik> so yeah, end of weekend seems possible <dmalcolm> so is a custom build target for python 3.3 sometime next week a sane thing to ask for? * dmalcolm is hoping to have a contingency plan <dgilmore> dmalcolm: that should be fine. how many packages are we talking about? <dgilmore> and how long should it take? <dmalcolm> about 30 iirc <dmalcolm> depends if we run into difficulties <dmalcolm> am trying it out locally on my laptop <dgilmore> dmalcolm: for that few it really shouldnt need its own tag <dmalcolm> dgilmore: thanks. My concern is: what happens if I run into some snag 20 packages in that isn't easily resolvable? Do I manually back everything out? <dgilmore> dmalcolm: we could untag it as long as its not gone out * dmalcolm isn't sure what that means <dmalcolm> dgilmore: does that basically mean untag the say 20 packages, so that rawhide goes back to earlier NVRs? <dgilmore> dmalcolm: yes <dmalcolm> tnx <dgilmore> dmalcolm: we cant do that though if its gone out in a nightly rawhide <dmalcolm> hmmm * dmalcolm hopes that that gives a wide enough window, and gets back to rehearsing the builds on his laptop <dmalcolm> thanks _______________________________________________ python-devel mailing list python-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/python-devel
