Could someone *please* explain and document the current process of getting RPMs and XO bundles into the build?
Etoys has been broken for weeks now unless I installed the latest bundle manually, just because the XO bundle was not pulled into the build. We're at bundle version Etoys-63 now, the build is still at Etoys-60.
A search for "joyride" comes up virtually empty:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Special:Search?search=joyride
And once the joyride build process is explained, could you outline your intents to killing joy, too?

I'm sorry, this went to the wrong dev-* list. Please ignore :-)

You might have better luck asking on devel. I'm not sure if Scott and Michael read the sugar list.

Marco, Bert,
I do read the sugar list, I saw Bert's email, and I am definitely guilty of not having offered a timely reply to your questions. My apologies.

The list of packages that pilgrim knows to install is at
http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=users/cscott/pilgrim;a=blob;f=streams.d/olpc-dev...
The current process for RPMS already listed at that location is to upload an RPM with a higher version number to ~/public_rpms/<build> on dev.laptop.org.
Please, please, please also include the SRPM in that directory alongside the RPM. We aren't using it yet, but we will be very shortly.
------
The process for new .xos is to have one of m_stone, c_scott, cjb, or marcopg apply a patch to
http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=users/cscott/pilgrim;a=blob;f=streams.d/olpc-dev...
that lists the activity name and to upload the .xo file to
http://olpc.download.redhat.com/activities/<build>
I believe Marco knows how to do this.
We are half-way through the change to our build-tools that is required to read .xo bundles from ~/public_rpms/<build. I fully expect this change to land by early next week; it has not yet because the person who has to integrate it has simply had higher priority bugs (namely, getting first-boot activation to a deployable state).

Again, sorry for the delay. More details about current speculations for killing joy will follow this afternoon.

Marco pointed out that my previous email was not clear enough about the process for including .xo bundles (#4251). The update on that bug is as follows:
Please follow Bert's example by putting your .xo bundles in ${HOME}/public_rpms/<build>/
Now, concerning #4253:
ChangeLogs, in the format
""" <pkg-lines> (containing ".xo", ".rpm") <detail-lines> (not containing the string ".xo", ".rpm", "--") -- <signature> (-- is the line marker)
<pkg> <pkg>.rpm <detail> -- <signature> """
as exemplified in
/home/mstone/public_rpms/rainbow/ChangeLog
will be _required_ to drive package inclusion in the builds.
Let me repeat that.
Your packages and activity bundles WILL NOT BE INCLUDED unless you supply change-entries, in the format above, for the exact version of the package or activity bundle you are trying to put into a build. (This is because we *must* get accurate, comprehensive, human-readable ChangeLogs and the most direct method of accomplishing that is to require you to write them as a prerequisite of package inclusion.)
If you don't like the format, please contribute a patch to
git://dev.laptop.org/users/mstone/buildtools
specifically to the file 'collect_rpms.py' and to the 'changelogs' package contained therein that adds support for your preferred format.
We are very happy to support other ChangeLog formats and collection methods but are currently unable to support them on our own.
Finally, intentions for killing joy will be outlined in a separate email as soon as they are finalized (hopefully tonight).
Questions?
Michael
P.S. - If you have them, please include your source rpms alongside the binary ones.
Also, I've stubbed out a page at
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Joyride
to accumulate content from this thread. Please help fill it in.
