The mini-buildd package introduced new or modified debconf templates. This is the perfect moment for a review to help the package maintainer following the general suggested writing style and track down typos and errors in the use of English language. If someone wants to pick up this review, please answer to this mail, in the mailing list, with an [ITR] (Intent To Review) label. The templates file is attached. To propose the file you reviewed for peer review, please send a [RFR] (Request For Review) mail with the reviewed file attached...then a few days later, when no more contributions come, a summary mail with a [LCFC] (Last Chance For Comments) label. Finally, after no more comments coming to the LCFC mail, you can send the reviewed templates file as a bug report against the package. Then, please notify the list with a last mail using a [BTS] label with the bug number. Helping the package maintainer to deal with induced translation updates at that moment will be nice. If you're not comfortable with that part of the process, please hand it off to a translator. --
Template: mini-buildd-common/purging_repository
Type: note
_Description: About to purge your repository
You have selected to purge mini-buildd on a repository host.
.
Puging means to remove the mini-buildd user along with all its
files, including the repository in "/home/mini-buildd/rep".
.
If you want to keep that data,
.
BACK IT UP NOW BEFORE CONTINUING.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_id
Type: string
Description: Mini-buildd's identity:
Identity of the mini-buildd network.
.
The identity is used on several places; most importantly, the
distributions created will be called "BASEDIST-ID". For version
strings, it plays the same role as "bpo" as used by
backports.org.
.
Should be a short mnemonic made with letters only.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_rephost
Type: string
Description: Repository host name:
Give the repository's host name; this is usually just the
hostname you get via "hostname -f". This will be used to create
URLs for HTTP acccess, and for ssh/scp commands.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_httpport
Type: string
Default: 80
Description: HTTP port to use:
If you use a dedicated HTTP server not using a standard port;
note that the whole network (i.e., build hosts too) must use
that port.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_sshport
Type: string
Default: 22
Description: SSH port to use:
If you use a dedicated SSH server not using a standard port;
note that the whole network (i.e., build hosts too) must use
that port.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_mail
Type: string
Description: Mail address (uploads/builds/failures):
All install, failure or log mails go here; usually, it's a good
idea to set up a mailing list for that.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_extdocurl
Type: string
Description: External documentation URL:
URL to external documentation.
.
This is just for convenience to provide a link to that URL on
the overview page; just leave empty if you don't have any.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_dists
Type: multiselect
Choices: ${DISTS}
Description: Basis distributions to support:
Space separated list of basis distributions to support.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_archs
Type: multiselect
Choices: ${ARCHS}
Description: Architectures to support:
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_apt_allow_unauthenticated
Type: boolean
Default: false
Description: Allow unauthenticated apt?
This flag correspondents to the respective apt and sbuild
options.
.
If you set this to false (highly recommended), you will need to
manually add the keys for extra sources you might have
configured (see ~/.mini-buildd/README for further instructions).
.
The standard Debian Keys should be managed fine by the
*-keyring packages (the paranoid may manually check the
fingerprints after initial chroot setups).
.
Set this to true only if you really trust your configured
sources.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_archall
Type: select
Choices: ${ARCHS}
Description: Arch of builder to build non-arch binary packages:
One builder machine must have the part to compile arch=all
binary packages; just give that architecture here.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_source
Type: string
Description: "${KIND}" sources for architecture "${ARCH}":
Apt sources for "${DIST}": ${DESC}
.
Notes:
* To specify more than one source, separate via "backslash n".
* With PIN and PRIO you may optionally set an apt-pin; useful
if an extra source is not in "not-automatic" mode.
* Give arch-specific sources only if needed ("any" is
fallback).
.
Syntax : Apt sources line without leading "deb "[;PIN;PRIO]
Example: ${EXAMPLE}
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_bldhost
Type: string
Description: Build host for architecture ${ARCH}:
Build hosts are installations of mini-buildd-bld for a specific
architecture; they manage the chroots and building for that
architecture.
.
Please give a full hostname here.
.
You may safely give a build host to-be here, and set it up later.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/mbd_deb_build_options
Type: string
Description: Debian build options for architecture ${ARCH}:
Build options as defined for DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS environment
variable (see policy, chapter 4.9.1).
.
The only option that is useful here is "parallel=n"; use this
if you have multiple CPUs/Cores at your hand for this archs
build host. You will then have parallel builds (i.e. faster
builds) for packages that support it.
Template: mini-buildd-rep/overview
Type: note
Description: Repository configuration finished
After the package installation is complete, visit the new home
of your build network:
.
${URL}
.
CAVEAT: You need to enable your httpd's "userdir" option manually.
.
Please note:
* On initial installs, or if you configured new build hosts:
*install* package "mini-buildd-bld" on all resp. build hosts.
* On reconfiguration with changes to supported dists or archs:
*reconfigure* package "mini-buildd-bld" on all build hosts.
Template: mini-buildd-bld/mbd_defer
Type: boolean
Default: false
Description: Defer builder configuration?
To configure builder hosts, the repository host must already be
set up and configured (as all the common configuration is
pulled from there by builder hosts).
.
Defer configuration in case your mini-buildd repository host is
not yet set up correctly. You must complete your setup by
running dpkg-reconfigure manually later.
.
${STATUS}
Template: mini-buildd-bld/mbd_rephttphost
Type: string
Description: Repository (http) host name:
Give the full host name of the repository here -- that is the
machine where mini-buildd-rep is installed. This will be used
to retrieve the configuration of the mini-buildd network
automatically via http.
.
If you need to specify a different port than the default (80),
use something like "my.host.com:8088".
Template: mini-buildd-bld/mbd_bldhost
Type: select
Choices: ${BLDHOSTS}
Description: This builder's id:
This builder's host name; you see the selection from the
configuration of mini-buildd-rep. If your host is not listed,
you need to reconfigure mini-buildd-rep.
.
Default is the host matching $(hostname -f).
Template: mini-buildd-bld/mbd_lvm_vg
Type: string
Default: auto
Description: LVM2 volume group to use:
You need a dedicated lvm volume group where the chroots are
maintained (via schroot).
.
In that volume group, mini-buildd will automatically maintain
chroots named mbd-BASEDIST-ID-ARCH (ID is the identity you
configured in mini-buildd-rep). These names should not collide
with existing logical volumes in that group, else any
reasonably sized volume group should work. Either
.
* Set this to "auto": An image file will be used automagically
in mini-buildd's home, and a lvm volume group named
"mini-buildd" be build on that via a loop device.
* Set it to an existing or to-be custom volume group (if your
create the volume group manually later, you need to
reconfigure this package).

a builder, the repository host (see package mini-buildd-rep)
must be fully set up first.
