[Scons-dev] Buildbot

[Managan, Rob]

Hi,

Totally feel off my radar about biblatex vs. biber…
Of course the output just cryptically says that "biber returned an error, check the blg file”
Probably that distribution has an older version of biker than what is supported. Sigh.

I will be away from the computers for a while but may be able to get back to that and ConTeXt support at the end of the month.

Dirk,

I’d have to disagree.

That's okay. ;)

I don’t think new toolchain logic is imminent.
Having a clean build on buildbot across all the available platforms is a simple way to verify thinks are “OK”.


Right, and not all dots are "on the i" currently. The LaTeX support has a problem with biblatex vs. biber detection under Fedora (talked to Rob about this some time ago, but I don't know what the current status is), and the Gnu Java installation under SuSE doesn't understand the "-sourcepath" option.
I can still install Sun Java instead, but the last time I suggested this you rather wanted to have the tests marked broken until someone fixed them.

So what has higher priority: "getting the slaves green" or "fixing things properly"?
(Yes, I know that this is over-simplified... ;) )

Probably can ignore the 2.6 failures though.. Perhaps I should retire that buildbot slave?

I wouldn't mind, or would upgrading to 2.7 be an option?

Regards,

Dirk
