In theory if I was smart enough I could avoid unnecessary rebuilds by seeing that the failure was not caused by EPERM, but I don't trust myself to be that smart. 17:33 < vasi> msachs, it might be useful to keep ccache-default installed, so rebuilds don't take too long 17:34 < vasi> but that might also cause a very small number of problems on its own 17:34 < msachs> Mm. 17:34 < dmacks> drm: Yeah, we've got 0.7.1 in the db. releases.sql is a database separate from the "packages in a given release" database. I assume at some point we used the former as labels in the versions block at the top of the package.php display, or maybe had a "list all packages in a given release" page. clef might know. 17:34 < msachs> I guess I'll just have it take longer, not a huge deal. 17:34 < msachs> Still won't be more than a week. 17:35 < vasi> drm, dmacks, what would you think of adding a BuildAsRoot flag for 10.4-non-trans? 17:35 < vasi> msachs, ok thanks :-) 17:35 < drm> vasi: sounds ok to me 17:35 < dmacks> [*all* .sql are just tempfiles that one uploads to the "actual" database server] 17:36 < drm> dmacks: the server doesn't like me 17:36 < drm> somehow the password didn't get passed 17:36 < drm> oops 17:36 < vasi> drm, SF servers don't like anyone :-) 17:36 < drm> sorry, typo in script 17:37 < drm> i guess that *PROVES* i never did this before :) 17:37 < dmacks> vasi: No idea what that means. In .info? When true means must build as root not as nobody? 17:37 < dmacks> heh 17:37 < vasi> dmacks, essentially 17:38 < vasi> idea being that we could sooner-or-later move to building most packages as nobody automagically 17:38 < dmacks> So it's a temporary crutch until we actually solve the passwd/chown issue correctly. 17:39 < drm> vasi: but do you want to enforce it right away in the new 10.4 tree? 17:39 < msachs> vasi: If I'm running the "fink build" as root, will --build-as-nobody drop root? 17:39 < dmacks> (but in the mean time will flag some that could be fixed (i.e., they do "chown root bin/foo" for some reason) 17:39 < dmacks> msachs: Yes. 17:39 < dmacks> ('fink build' always runs as root) 17:41 < vasi> dmacks, not really, even once that's "solved" there will probably be a few things that we can't force to use non-root 17:41 < vasi> drm, i'd like to do that... 17:41 < vasi> drm, we won't actually force things to build as non-root right away 17:41 < vasi> dmacks, yeah the intention is for the flag to eventually be dropped from as many packages as possible 17:41 < vasi> drm, but it will give us a good idea of which packages to check as we work on eliminating builds-as-root 17:41 < dmacks> I don't like using "new tree" as "a place to add new fields (by default or policy)", since it makes it harder to sync with older trees. 17:42 < drm> dmacks: on the other hand, its hard to see what kind of break point one uses for starting to do something like "--build-as-nobody is the new default" 17:42 < drm> if its a new tree, then things can get that flag added, as needed, when they move there 17:42 < dmacks> So we add the flag as we find the need, then remove it as we resolve the situation? That's a rather leaky policy...no way to distinguish "works" from "unchecked" 17:43 < drm> true 17:43 < vasi> dmacks, i don't mean to only add the field to the new tree 17:43 < vasi> but that while we have to build and test everything anyhow is a good time to add stuff 17:43 < dmacks> drm: Right. Experience shows that people sometimes/often forget to add the flag when syncing from a lower tree. 17:44 < drm> yes, but presumably if they forget, the package won't build in the new tree 17:44 < dmacks> Look how many times you've had to "remove inappropriate perl veriosns" from 10.4 trees. 17:45 < vasi> so for now we can make it required-but-not-used-by-fink in 10.4, and optional in previous trees 17:45 < vasi> once fink begins to use it, we can start mandating it in the earlier trees as well 17:45 < drm> vasi: not sure how effective it is to introduce a new flag which isn't used 17:46 < drm> we've been through this with the GCC flag 17:46 < dmacks> Why not add BuildAsRoot:true to all .info in all trees.
