Getting started at the cAos temple for cAos builder access and use: - set up an account at: https://temple.caosity.org/ - upload priv's will be granted (manual 'vetting' process presently) - transfer in a SRPM by rsync @temple.caosity.org:: (password is your chosen 'temple' password); presently a management interface for resets being re-written by me, but works sufficiently now - Bug XXX - with yum, it is easy enough to set up a local cAos build chroot instance on a RH distro based box; that is how cAos was bootstrapped - log into the 'temple' and go to release it to the autobuilder by 'adopting' it; optionally, adding 'Hints' (which are soft BuildReqs): URL is https://temple.caosity.org/pkg_adoptions.php - one does buildchain needs that way as well. It is probably the case that we should have the capability to set up and manage 'per user' development yum archives, so a given chroot can be updated, on a per user basis, to do remote testing. But it is not unreasonable to expect a 'general case' cAos developer will already have a buildbox, and so not need this feature much. Someday ... - the autobuilder will build it and place it in the untrusted archive in about an hour (again there is a non-visible release review process). Ditto buildlogs become visible, XXX add base URC; The Build Turn for the builder is under an hour; I am working a design on a 'EoBuild notification' system for buildresults - Bug XXX It ain't much, but it is enough to produce a traceable, and functional public build system ------------------------ TBD: - Build error evaluation; troubleshooting common build problems; local fork and fix process outline; filing against SRPM with Adopter; sending patches upstream -------------- Initial - RPH - 040129 couch:~/caos/getting_started_temple.txt external: http://www.herrold.com/caos/getting_started_temple.txt ----------------
