Needs-Build: 4833
Hi!
After doing or during the upgrade of Elgar I used the long waiting
periods to have a look at buildd.net. It's amazing how much is breaking
when you don't care about the code for 4 years.... ;-)
Anyway, we're up to 4833 packages in Needs-Build:
wanna-build statistics - Mon Nov 12 06:51:13 CET 2012
-----------------------------------------------------
Distribution unstable:
---------------------
Installed : 1321
Needs-Build : 4833
Building : 0
Uploaded : 0
Failed : 0
Dep-Wait : 0
Reupload-Wait : 0
Install-Wait : 0
Failed-Removed : 0
Dep-Wait-Removed: 0
Not-For-Us : 0
total : 9906
13.34% (1321) up-to-date, 13.34% (1321) including uploaded
48.79% (4833) need building
0.00% ( 0) currently building
0.00% ( 0) failed/dep-wait
0.00% ( 0) old failed/dep-wait
0.00% ( 0) need porting or cause the buildd serious grief
That's a lot.
It's even as many packages in needs-build then the whole archive
consists of in 2005:
1124103487 5439 191 105 10 123 52 0 0 4 0 25 5949
So, on Aug. 15 2008 we had 5949 packages in the archive, now we have to
build 4833 out of 9906. It's obvious that m68k will be never again
uptodate with unstable with 10.000 packages. So we have to reduce the
number of packages, let's say, to 4000 packages maybe.
Anyway, I'm looking for a HowTo to setup a buildd. I found
https://buildd.debian.org/docs/buildd-setup.txt and it differs a little
bit from what we have used in the past. For example it seems that
schroot is now preferred over (d)chroot and LVM snapshots are now
supported.
Can someone please comment if that URI is correct? Of course we need to
adopt changes for debian-ports.org.
