could be useful for ordering the build sequence from root to leaves
or for visualizing the missing dependencies.

You have a login on mas (espejo node 1); this is obra. Both are virtual KVMs on 
topo at NetDepot. I copied over your key from mas, so you should be able to ssh 
jerem...@obra.freemoe.org.

Interesting dir for you may be:
/var/www/freemoe-etch/

You have many gigs of space @ /home--feel free to copy over the whole archive 
(9.3G) to your homedir and process the files as you like. All can be made 
visible.

Nice stuff indeed. I hope that you will try Lenny or Squezze soon as Etch is 
not supported now by Debian (but is similar to Maemo5 roots).

SSU yes, SDK no. Users of devices do not use SDK repos as they were described 
as 'can break device' due to dependencies.

One thing that might be done is to compare the builds to a build in pbuilder 
which is a minimal set of debian tools. 

Also, I would like to do some testing of maemian on the built packages - just 
to see what sort of data there is an how to go about making maemian more 
friendly to developers. You've given me a login to your machine so I assume you 
don't mind me doing this but I thought I would ask you first. I would also like 
to make the maemian logs visible as well. Is that okay?

Warm regards,

Jeremiah

Great!

Yes.  Would be good to compile a list of such missing Depends and maybe
put some extra effort into making them build, too.

There will be cyclic build dependencies, though, and things get
interesting then.

Yes, from

to

Yes, I was thinking of running a few checks across the package before 
submitting it, such as:

* In extras* ?

* Depends: are ok?  Just because the Build-Depends: were there doesn't mean the 
Depends: are there.

* Isn't ridiculously huge? etc. Suggestions welcome.

Future options include:

* Building with faster flags (neon etc).

* Automatically adding icon + Section: if is GUI app.

* Rebuilding against itself (2nd and multiple passes). This will build yet many 
more packages since so many more libfoo-* have been built.

* Lenny? Sid?

* http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Jebba/Etch

As a side note, this build was done on a server at netdepot.com. They 
graciously bumped the RAM about 25% of the way into the build...

For the future(tm), I have created Amazon Machine Instances of the build server 
(SDK + sbdmock) for use on Amazon's "Elastic Compute Cloud" (EC2). Using these, 
innumerable virtual machines can be launched in Amazon's most excellent network 
and set to work building packages. Rent by the hour, then turn the thing off. :)

This means there were a lot of build failures (as could be expected).

Mining the failures would be interesting, too.  I suppose a lot are due
to missing build dependencies, but some have probably failed in more
interesting ways.

Do you have the build logs online as well?

There should be a fix any day now...

You should probably also exclude packages that already exist in the
SSU and SDK repositories, just to avoid confusion.

Debian Etch, Rebuilt: 6,451 .debs for Maemo 5

2010-02-02 Thread Jeff Moe
Hey,

* I rebuilt all Debian Etch source packages with the Maemo 5 SDK and sdbmock.

* 10,220 Source packages processed.

*  6,451 .debs produced.

* The job ran for 8 days.

* They have not been run through maemo-optify yet--I will test the fix for the 
recursive symlink bug[1] when ready.

* They were compiled against the current maemos-extras repository. They have no 
dependencies other than that. In other words, no package within the rebuild 
depends on anything else in the rebuild--this is the first pass.

* I could batch import packages that don't already exist in extras-devel. I 
think this would be rad.

* Download locations (temporary):
   Directory: http://obra.freemoe.org/freemoe-etch/
   Install file for N900: http://obra.freemoe.org/obra.install
   /etc/apt/sources.list:
   deb http://obra.freemoe.org/freemoe-etch ./

* Thx Ed for sbdmock help.

Have fun,

-Jeff Moe
