That is old greek to me unfortunately. pinthread I guess is this one https://github.com/nexlab/pinthread and the USAGE seems pretty OK for me to follow. devuan-jenkins-glue https://git.devuan.org/devuan-infrastructure/jenkins-debian-glue and I could check http://jenkins-debian-glue.org/ to get a notion what its doing jenkins Jenkins Continuous Integration system. I could read here http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/Jenkins/article.html I could use some more pointers are there some scripts I could spy on? I mean how it all fits together? I guess this is not prioritized but do you think it will be documented any time in the future? /scooby ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

I'm just puzzled by the public hostility the maintainer of this project shows towards Devuan. The fix to the jenkins-debian-glue was in fact the first contribution Devuan has made to Debian ;^) > jenkins Jenkins Continuous Integration system. I could read here > http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/Jenkins/article.html yes, and you can see it in action for us here https://ci.devuan.org of course this shows compilation only of "official" Devuan packages when there is need for it and, as we can see, that doesn't happens often after the initial builds. the silent good news is that the cross-builds arm/mips are back online as shown. we of course intend to document all steps needed to setup the CI, something we can expect to be accomplished in the first quarter of 2017, so that people can also build their own. however it is not a priority now, nor it is a priority to have rpi3 specific packages. we decided some time ago that rpi2 packages are just fine and work on both, while there are little advantages in dropping the rpi2 compatibility. I'd be interested in reading your motivation to have rpi3 specific builds. ciao ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
Re: [DNG] building for armhf
... we of course intend to document all steps needed to setup the CI, something we can expect to be accomplished in the first quarter of 2017, so that people can also build their own. So is this the only way to setup a tool chain for armhf on devuan? I got to research some more. I only want to rebuild a couple of packages however it is not a priority now, nor it is a priority to have rpi3 specific packages. we decided some time ago that rpi2 packages are just fine and work on both, while there are little advantages in dropping the rpi2 compatibility. I'd be interested in reading your motivation to have rpi3 specific builds. I agree with packages working on both rpi2 and rpi3, Sorry you get no arguments from me on that. My motivation for rebuilding packages for rpi was 1.) Rebuild tor package to the newest version. I want to run the latest tor software Probably important for privacy of users of the onion network, right? Official tor builds will pull in libsystemd0 2.) Yearn to run vdev on my rpi. /scooby ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

I hope I will have time to do that ASAP. Sorry for the sloppiness on the matter...
