Robert claimed that lack of build resources was why Linux_x86-64 doesn't
have a release. Could someone clarify how you can have enough resources
to build four x86_64 Linux versions every night and not just once per
release?

No, I don't lack for places to get an onofficial versions, for the same
of reporting bugs I use a nightly of the next version which comes from
the official site, as opposed to getting a build or building from source.

It only takes once being told "we do not support versions build by third
parties for unsupported architectures" (a polite way to say go shit in
your hat) to get me to grab one from an official source.

Besides, they seem to work very well, I'm not unappreciative, just want
to be able to report a bugs I do find.


We *do* build linux x86_64 on EVERY release, beta and otherwise. We put those builds in contrib/*.

We don't officially support them because we don't have the resources to support a variety of things, testing, automated testing, QA, etc.

We provide them just don't officially support. No l10n builds for the platform either, fwiw.

We tried to even get updates going for release builds of linux64 for 2.2 (we hit a snag, and won't delay 2.2 for a linux64 issue atm), and KaiRo was even able to manually create updates (to 2.0.14) from all prior 2.0 linux64 builds we produced.

And in reality not sure where you get "4 every night" we only create every night trunk/aurora linux64 builds, we have "on change" builds of linux64 that happen whenever the slave itself is free but it is ONLY one slave, so if the tree changes are heafty it gets pretty behind.
