I think of CI as something that should strive to work and not take any extra time once it is properly set up. But who knows, maybe I won't finish it.I see - sounds like we need a machine-readable cross-distro way to describe dependencies. Ideally in groups, like "minimal" dependencies, "test only", "maximum features" etc. We could even translate these automatically or semi-automatically into spec files, debian directory etc. This would be nice to have but I'm not aware of a way to do this. Didn't Andrea describe something like this recently?
Yes, they are listed in a file and there is a mapping. Sure, ideally we would plug this into the libvirt-ci machinery, but unfortunately for starters that has become too big of a hammer for this kind of nail. Also it works nicely when it is done on GitLab as GitHub has a different way of running their own CI. However first I need to make sure that this is something worth investing in after I try to deploy the auto-update of libnbd-go. We can also expand it onto all libguestfs repos, but that's a long way ahead of us.
