Can i get the pass for the pddev users, or we do it another way around? Your ssh key should already be in the pddev account on the PdLab machines. There is no password access to those machines, only with SSH keys. I was also thinking: we could move the master to the box that is already upgraded... the job of the master is not cpu-intensive at all, at it may be not net-intensive as well (if the uploads don't go to the master but somewhere else. Disk space is used for the logs only. What do you think? The master is the one with a biggish disk, so it makes sense to use that one. Is the version on the master too old to function? Because I can upgrade buildbot on that one soon, after the Pd-extended release. .hc ___ Pd-dev mailing list Pd-dev@iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev

Hm you mean the mkdir, create-slave, start lines? With the appripriate slavename from master.cfg? Was there any output on the console? I used the name pd-slave. Hope that's right. Nope, slavenames are in /var/lib/buildbot/pd-master/master.cfg, line 65, on 128.238.56.50. You have to use the unique slavename which matches the slave. Silly me, why don't i just send them to you...? ubuntuLTS386, ubuntuLTS64, ubuntuCurrent386, debianStable386, macosx104_386, macosx104_powerpc, macosx106_64, windowsXP386 Andras I think you should be able to ssh to buildbot on debian-stable-i386, ubuntu-lts-i386 (128.238.56.55) and ubuntu-current-i386 (128.238.56.53) so you could make those yourself. We need to figure out how to install buildbot on Mac OS X and Windows/Cygwin. Both are supposed to include buildbot, fink has version 0.8.0, will that work? I think in order to get the Cygwin one, I need to upgrade Cygwin entirely, which will also need to wait until after the Pd-extended release. .hc ___ Pd-dev mailing list Pd-dev@iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev

Once Pd-extended is released, I can upgrade without worrying about it. I understand. I'd like to keep the 128.238.56.50 machine as the master since the rest are more or less disposable. So we can wait for Pd-extended to be released to upgrade (less than 2 weeks hopefully), we can work with the version that is installed now, or if you want you could install a newer version manually, then we can switch to the new Debian package once Pd-extended is released. Sounds good. So you mean i shall install a new version somewhere under /var/lib/buildbot? Will it run ok as a daemon? Or shall i build a new version which you then install over the existing one? Ok, I just built the package myself from source and removed the dependency on dpkg 1.15 and set it to 1.14 for lenny instead. That means 0.7.12 is now installed on debian-stable-i386. Also, about the slave names, would it be possible to use the same names that are on the PdLab page? I.e. not CamelCase, but with-dashes instead :) .hc ___ Pd-dev mailing list Pd-dev@iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev

Nest step would be uploading the file, this can be done internally, just tell me please which file or directory is the actual build? And... how do we make a package with the Vanilla source? Sorry I never built it myself. Some more questions that came up meanwhile: Shall we update or copy the source each time? (see http://buildbot.net/buildbot/docs/latest/Source-Checkout.html) Do we need --enable-jack to configure Vanilla (after autogen)? Andras The way that this would be super useful is if buildbot builds after every commit to SVN or git. It looks like SVN polling support is built-in http://buildbot.net/buildbot/docs/0.7.12/#SVNPoller For git, it supports checkout, but there are some external scripts for polling: http://buildbot.net/buildbot/docs/0.7.12/#Git http://stackoverflow.com/questions/645430/have-buildbot-poll-a-git-repository-for-new-commits http://buildbot.net/trac/ticket/130 .hc yes, git is more cumbersome when it comes to polling, so i will work this out with daily builds and see the polling stuff after. the older buildbot version also has some limitations in this direction. I think we can start with SVN since that should be easier. If that works nicely, then we can struggle to get git polling working. Alrite. My box may fall out then, because i cannot handle so many build cycles per day, or i'll try to find a way to limit it to one build cycle on 'civilian' boxes like mine. Ah yes, that makes sense. I was thinking the full time machines. Or, we could raise money for a 64-bit box? 195 USD is not much... http://cgi.ebay.com/Sun-Microsystems-Sun-Fire-X2100-1-8Ghz-512-RAM-NEW-/140441798951?pt=COMP_EN_Servers Or a Dell Zino for 250 USD, its 64-bit and runs Debian/Ubuntu nicely. http://www.dell.com/us/en/home/desktops/inspiron-zino-hd/pd.aspx?refid=inspiron-zino-hdcs=19s=dhs Cool. The X2100 is basically identical to the Ultra20 i have, it's a Tyan main board with Opteron - and runs Debian/Ubuntu nicely :o) How do we raise the funds? Is there an established way, or idea how to do it? Andras It would be nice to have a 64-bit Debian machine with a bunch of chroots, both 32-bit and 64-bit, Debian and Ubuntu. I suppose it might also be possible to have Fedora, Gentoo, etc. chroots if someone wanted to take that on. A big part of that question is also: who is going to build and maintain this machine? I'm overloaded as it is. .hc ___ Pd-dev mailing list Pd-dev@iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev
