The build broke in module sal, because file 'convertiscii.tab' could
not be found.
This file has been removed a couple of days ago by hdu - 2012-03-28,
rev. 1306246.
Thus, a clean build is needed to get the dependencies up to date.
There have been 2 clean builds (one was last night's build) since the
sal issue first occurred.
The problem remains - something else is wrong. This would be good to
sort out.
Can someone please trigger a clean build for our Windows buildbot?
done twice.
Thx in advance.
BTW, as our build system is quite complex and not complete regarding
its dependencies I propose to always perform a clean build on our
buildbots.
I am not so sure that the build system is all that complex. There are
three main moving parts here:
* The buildbot infrastructure. This is perhaps the most complex part,
but is mostly handled by Apache Infra (thanks Gavin)
* The 'machine recipe' which can be seen in the JIRAs setting up the
buildbots - base OS + packages/requirements. Not rocket science,
and very repeatable.
* The 'build recipe' which is in the openoffice config for the
buildbots. These break down into get source (svn co), run build,
upload results. The syntax in the bb config is a bit cryptic, but
you can figure it out pretty quick, at which point, there's nothing
to exotic going on.
We have a combination of clean builds (svn clobber) and incremental
builds going on. The clobbered builds just take a long time. I'm not
sure that we are really at a point where we need to do a clean build for
every platform, for every build. It just sucks up bandwidth and
resources, and takes longer.
All of this is of course covered by a healthy dose of IMHO.
