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'm not reluctant to doing that, I'm keeping this within the context of
the original request. The freeze for the release ends next week, so the
release will happen around that time. I don't think setting up such a
system now makes sense within that context, but if it gets done for
the long term it's fine.

the plan was to integrate such process in ebuilder, a program written in ruby by Philippe Caseiro to compile on several hosts, with different options to configure, sending mails if something wrong happens, with beautiful html pages which shows the problems, and plenty of other stuff

It's not finished. If some people know ruby and want to help, contact Philippe

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.
