Re: DEP18 follow-up: What would be the best path to have all top-150 packages use Salsa CI?

That depends on the amount, type, and size of packages one is working on. In the Debian perl Group we have 4000 packages, and there are days with 5-10 new upstream releases. Many of the packages are trivial, so updating them (including autopkgtests and blhc and lintian and whatnot) doesn't take longer than 5 minutes. So I can decide to wait for salsa CI for 10 minutes or update 2 more packages in the same time. (Or try to context switch and keep a stack of where I was etc.) I totally see the value of salsa CI for complex packages, for running things which can't be run locally, for merge requests, etc. But there are also situations where it doesn't help. -- I guess what I want to say is that salsa CI is a useful tool, and like every tool, it has its places but it's not a panacea.

In the Debian Perl Group, our dpt-import-orig wrapper around gbp-import-orig uses --upstream-vcs-tag, but it guesses the name of the upstream tag, so we're typically not using upstream-vcs-tag in gbp.conf.

They provide an interface between build tools (e.g. ExtUtils::MakeMaker, Module::Build, ...) and building extensions. This allows producing and consuming sides to be completely independent from each other. It is a flexible abstraction around pieces of work, this work can be a piece of perl code, an external command, a mix of those or possibly other things. Nodes are composite Actions.

In my git workflow I never make a commit when I first want to try
something out; specifically with git-buildpackage:
% cat ~/.gbp.conf
…
[buildpackage]
…
export = WC
("WC" as in "working copy", i.e. the directory as it is right now).

Currently many people and teams still start from tarballs even when
using git, via the pristine-tar tool and a pristine-tar branch.

Here I disagree because I remember that we (pkg-perl) had to put
hundreds of README.source files into packages saying "This package
uses quilt, quilt documentation is $over_there" because policy
mandated it; and a few years later we removed them again after a
policy change (or was it the switch to source format "3.0 (quilt)"?).
So please no README.source with "This package used gbp with
patches-unapplied and yadda yadda".

I can relate a lot to this paragraph and would append: With or
without the coffee, each time I see a warning from dpkg-gencontrol I
have to think for some time about which of the two possible problems

annoying.

This is an "offline" analysis system, in the sense that the analysis tools all run in a different process, possibly at a later time, than the perl process that is being analysed. The basic workflow consists of two main stages: first a heap dump file is generated from the perl process being debugged, at or around the time that the problem becomes apparent, and secondly this file is loaded by an analysis tool in order to inspect the contents. To generate the heap dump file that captures the contents of the heap, the Devel::MAT::Dumper (libdevel-mat-dumper-perl) module is used. Now that we have a .pmat file, we can load it and start to inspect the contents.

(We briefly discussed the topic at the pkg-perl BoF during DebConf [0] but this is not an offical team statement.) I see the advantages of the proposal but I think for the perl ecosystem it doesn't make a whole lot of sense, for two reasons: - First, CPAN and Debian are quite similar (for better or worse :)); not only about the same age but for both projects the canonical way of distribution is via tarballs from mirrors - the Debian archive and the CPAN mirror network. And for both project there is no requirement to use any VCS or even less a specific one or a specific hosting for a VCS. - Second, using only the VCS of a CPAN distribution is not ideal because it misses information which is created at release time and which we rely on. So taking the code from an upstream repo basically means doing part of a release ourselves. In general, the above mentioned problems of discrepancies between upstream VCS (if they exist) and upstream tarballs are minor or close to non-existant in the CPAN world. Hence switching to a VCS-based approach wouldn't really solve any actual problem in almost all cases and would create challenges for our tools and workflows. There are exceptions where we do use the upstream VCS as the tarball indeed contains undesirable artifacts; and we agreed in the BoF that improving our tooling to work from a VCS instead of tarballs would be nice.
