Reproducible builds
Hello; Just thought I¡d share this link I came up with: https://reproducible-builds.org The subject is somewhat controversial; making a reproducible build involves effort and is unlikely to add value to the end product. Still there are interesting issues though. The main question is: do the checksums we generate actually have a meaning? Can people downloading the source code actually rebuild the application and obtain the same checksum we are asking them to trust? Proponents of reproducible builds mention the case of tainted toolchains, like the trojanized SDK that recently hit a mobile AppStore. The website is full of interesting tools but one reference that caught my eye was Google’s Bazel: http://bazel.io Bazel is a new build system that offers both speed and reproducibility: it supports Java, C++, ObjC, and is under an Apache License. Big stopper: no Windows support (yet). Just something to thin about. I see many issues in our current buildbots that are difficult to address but spending time in the build system is something the we generally (but wrongly) assume is not worthy of spending developer time on it.

Hi Pedro, I still need to document the steps I took and hopefully someone knowledgeable with the build process could add in the extra steps during the Jar process.

I have been in touch with Google asking them to investigate. It may just be coincidence, but the flood attack appears to have stopped, for now. I would still like to find out from Infra if anything can be done to improve our spam filtering.

[RISK?] FW: Daily/Nightly builds for Windows?
[BCC PMC and QA Lists. This is a serious topic for dev@ community discussion.] Can we have some visibility on this, please? The last aoo-win7 ASF Buildbot success was on 2015-07-28. Thereafter, the Buildbot reported exceptions until 2015-10-03. There have been no reports at all from that Buildbot since. For 4.1.2, the only current builds were the Release Candidates. This left very little time for QA testing, with each new RC required retesting to some degree. Those were very short windows. This also means that the only way to verify anything about Windows functions by developers, QA, and anyone else is to have the personal means and the computer capacity to do development builds, matching the build parameters and other dependencies used for release builds. Isn't that too select and narrow for the attention that is required? This seems to be at least a quality risk. There is also a question of exactly what the present capability and capacity is in contrast to what is required to support continuous integration of Windows builds. - Dennis > -Original Message- > From: Pedro Lino [mailto:pedl...@gmail.com] > Sent: Friday, December 4, 2015 03:58 > To: q...@openoffice.apache.org > Subject: Daily/Nightly builds for Windows? > > Hi all > > Now that 4.1.2 is out and development is again active, I believe it > would > be good to have the Apache OpenOffice buildbots releasing daily binaries > for Windows as well? > > This has been broken long before the 4.1.2 RC stage but maybe now > someone > could give some love to the buildbot? > > With nearly 1 million downloads per day for the Windows platform alone, > I > believe that it would make sense to make sure that AOO is improved and > that > any regressions are detected early. > > Best regards, > Pedro - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Re: [DISCUSS] Maven Repo Release of Java UNO Jar Files
Dennis, Since this a release of primarily pre-built binaries that are already included with AOO I need some guidance on the requirements. They are libraries so they can't be run for testing. Maybe if someone uses them as libraries they could test them that way. Three of them can be built from the provided sources but in general they are built during AOO builds. I think : 1. Crypto should be verified. 2. Check that LICENSE, NOTICE is present. 3. Review the README for the 2 source and javadoc jars with missing sources. 4. Review the .pom file Am I missing anything? Thanks for all your guidance on this, Carl On 12/04/2015 12:30 AM, Dennis E. Hamilton wrote: Carl, Thanks for everything you are doing to provide these useful components for others.
