Hello,
As todo list on the wiki for sysadmin was not updated for a long time, I
looked at list of things we have to do.
For the buildsystem :
Youri :
* use upstream version of youri from zarb
* add support for new architectures (if we decide to add ARM as
supported architecture)
* keep compilation logs for sucessful builds (for the last version of each
package) #670
* support building packages for core and tainted repositories #340
* add priorities on builds, to be able to submit builds with low priority
which are done when all other builds with higher priority are done
* add support for dependencies between builds and/or api to allow
scripting on client side. #631
* add command to cancel a build #635
* Decide if we use a database to store build infos, or continue to
save them inside files and paths.
iurt :
* use linux containers #667
* allow to generate src.rpm from svn in the chroot #392
* do benchmarks with multiple builds on the same node, to see if we can
still have acceptable performance. Two builds on each node would
avoid blocking the build system for a few hours when there is a big
package building
mgarepo :
* add support for branches
* use anonymous svn in create-srpm so we don't need ssh agent
* add kill command #318
Other :
* send commit emails for commits from apprentice
* send failed build emails to submitter
* enable ssh keys from ldap on valstar. Export is working (and used on
rabbit), but we need to import all ssh keys on filesystem to ldap.
* make tool to move/remove packages from repository (like rpmctl)
* see how to manage groups alias for bugzilla / maintainers db
And other things :
- setup wiki
- setup pastebin
- create tool to save and share passwords http://is.gd/KDtys0
- finish setup of git repositories. Decide which tools to use to manage
git repositories (or create our tools to do it).
Do you see something to add ? Or to remove/change ? Or other comments ?
