Ah, that's roughly when I did my last "build packages from upstream trunk" test, and indeed it looked fairly well back then. > I didn't announce this on the ML though, but I figure I could do > that too, for the next cycle... That would be nice. Let's give it a try and see how it goes? From your end it's just an extra mail when you are ready to release (and maybe giving packagers two days or so), and from our end it's just moving all the heavy-lifting around a bit. > 50 non-backport patches? That sounds like a lot... It's not that bad, most of them are trivial, like tweaking tmpfiles.d or some extra historic udev rules. We have quite a bunch of patches to get rid of Fedora/RedHat-isms and replace them with Debianisms, and then there's a lot for having a non-merged /usr (which Debian didn't do yet). Aside from two or three which keep breaking most of them just tag along, but there's always enough noise to break completely automatically building packages from git master. Anyway, this is completely tangential.. :-) Thanks, Martin -- Martin Pitt | http://www.piware.de Ubuntu Developer (www.ubuntu.com) | Debian Developer (www.debian.org) _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
