I can provide a UltraSparc for that. We can create a public repository
with these packages for people who want to help.
For me the main problem is the need of an unified build process.
Wouldn't the following be enough?
svn co package
svn-buildpackage
If #375973, and maybe #377880 would be fixed that could be done.
Some packages that uses svn-buildpackage (like Boson) and don't have there
tarball in tarballs/ because of there size.
Therefore we need a script for that.
That should be placed, IMHO in svn/scripts/boson and that should be
ran via a prebuild action (see #375973). That would be generic enough
and elegant enough, IMO.
So i suggest to have a scripts/pacakge.sh for such case that call
svn-buildpackage if needed after.
or have #377880 fixed and realx.
Something i want to see is to have EVERY package directly in
trunk/packages/. No more trunk/package/package-data and
trunk/package/package-data. This will reduct the complexity for scripting.
Yes, indeed, but as I said, I think scripting is not needed anyway,
*if* and only if we want to do buld related stuff.
