In conclusion, we'll live.
Hmm, I don't think we're really as good as that. Many of our core processes are tied into koji now. All our makefiles need to be rewritten to use mocks '--offline' option, and that doesn't always work. The buildroot configuration we are using is tied to koji's static olpc3 repo. Work around here has certainly ground to a halt. We should certainly transition to processes that are not as tightly coupled; at a minimum, we should maintain a mirror of the koji build root. --scott -- ( http://cscott.net/ ) _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
