Per #parrot: <apeiron> I'm trying to submit a smoke for parrot 0.6.3 on FreeBSD and I'm getting this error: * Sending data to smokeserver "http://smoke.parrotcode.org/smoke/ "... error: The submitted smoke has an invalid format! Am I missing something, or did I do something incorrectly? <diakopter> apeiron: usually that's b/c you did svn export, not svn checkout <apeiron> diakopter, This is directly from a 0.6.3 tarball. <diakopter> apeiron: that too :) <diakopter> yes, non-svn-checkouts can't submit smokes <apeiron> ah. <apeiron> Now you tell me. <diakopter> apeiron: actually <diakopter> if you modify the submission file to include some svn revision, the smoke server will accept it <diakopter> b/c it includes the svn revision in the submission <pmichaud> seems like we ought to be able to get 'make smoke' to recognize "0.6.3" as a valid revision :-) <pmichaud> for the non-svn checkouts. <apeiron> Not a big deal, I'm installing svn presently. <apeiron> (well, not a big deal for me) <pmichaud> well, we'd like to get smokes from lots of platforms :-) <diakopter> apeiron: I don't know what revision the 0.6.3 release was <diakopter> pmichaud: could the 'make release' target put the r in some text file somewhere? <diakopter> apeiron: 0.6.3 was r28470 I put 28470 in the appropriate spot and the smoke server accepted it, though it'd be nice to not have to do this. Especially if we get automated smoking going.
