[opensuse-buildservice] OBS 1.6 Beta 1 release
Hi, we are working currently on the next feature release of the openSUSE Build Service. You can find already a first beta 1 version of 1.6 at the usual places. This new release features mainly the new Cross Build Support implemented by Martin and Jan-Simon. This allows to build packages for all hardware architectures, even without the need to own these. The emulation is realized via qemu. Martin and me are working currently also on getting it working in XEN, so we will get ARM build support also on build.opensuse.org. Hopefully tomorrow :) Zonker wrote an announcement about this and new partnerships: http://www.tradingmarkets.com/.site/news/Stock%20News/2263346/ Martin Mohring documented this support here: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Concepts/CrossDevelopment The version 1.6 has also the new "build-compare" support, which allows the system to drop build results, if the result has not changed compared to former build. The 1.6 Beta 1 package can get downloaded from the openSUSE:Tools project https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=obs- server&project=openSUSE:Tools or as tar ball from the for pages: http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Special:Downloads/opensuse/1.6 have fun adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org

Let me bring some light in here. Even more details you can find in the OBS Team Meeting protocols. Marcus Hüwe wrote the Download on Demand feature which was heavily used for the development of Cross Development. It is also documented in my wiki entry, it sure works for normal "non cross build targets" also. And I used Download on Demand to develop/test Cross Build. Jan-Simon is working with me on getting the openSUSE @ ARM base system boostrapping using Cross Development with OBS. That is one step further already. He also setup the "exotic " Maemo distro to work with Cross Build. If our GSoC project gets approved, we will work even more heavily on the openSUSE @ ARM port during summer. I developed/tested the rest and set up and tested the other ARM targets documented in http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/PoweredBy. It took me lots of qemu fixing to achive this list.
Martin and me are working currently also on getting it working in XEN, so we will get ARM build support also on build.opensuse.org. Hopefully tomorrow :)

See comment, Download on Demand docu has not been separated from Cross Build. But it works great together. Marcus and me made sure it does.
The version 1.6 has also the new "build-compare" support, which allows the system to drop build results, if the result has not changed compared to former build.

Hi Adrian, it's nice to have "beta" version, but I would prefer to have this in sub-project "Test" or "Unstable". Some days ago I installed 1.5.1-4.1 on a testbox, and now I wanted to install it on another box, but this is not possible, because openSUE:Tools is now at 1.6 beta 1. :( I think others would agree to this. Would it be possible to have stable version (e.g. 1.5.1) at openSUSE:Tools and newer stables provided via openSUSE:Tools:Updates ? Kind Regards Chris Adrian Schröter schrieb:

We have actually :Devel already for this, but I missed to use it :/ sorry, however, the 1.6 beta should have only fixes in the areas which were used so far. So you can consider it also as a further bugfixed 1.5 except for the two new main features, which should not affect anything except you use them. So this time it should not be a problem, but I agree that we should use :devel next time. -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
