The problem with that is guaranteeing that the entire thing builds.

make distcheck...


And if it doesn't build you have the script keep trying? There's the OBS
for that, though I don't know if it provides the tarballs too.

make distcheck || exit 1

that way, the script exits on error. So really, there is no problem at
all. You can also retrieve the error code, and let the script displaying
message, sending a mail, etc.. and exiting cleanly

Let's remember that "if it build, ship it" is not a good one. Many
things may fail even if they compile, like some incorrect string that
was changed with a typo.

same problem when we release, so... Release is basically : we update
version, some file, make distcheck, we copy the tarball somewhere.


Nah, you usually test releases to make sure they actually work, instead
of just firing make and uploading the package if it didn't fail.

we can say : hey, here are dayly snapshot, these are compiling but must not work correctly". And you gave the list of dayly snapshot

note that i wanted to do that for the freeze period. I don't see why you're relunctant to an automated process that requires 0s of work, except the basic shell script.

But when that thread will end, the freeze period will be over...

I agree with Sachiel and think they want some guaranteed-to-work (at
least on Linux) tarballs, that they can use and assume all problems
found are OpenBSD specific and not bug on the generic parts.
