Though I guess you were mainly talking about complexity in debian/rules. Sure, more conditionals add complexity. > The latter point is as likely to cause problems for the bootstrappers > themselves as it is for the maintainers, since the more maintainers who have > to get this metadata right and keep it up to date, the more it's going to > bitrot. If you are worried about bitrot, then we have to throw more continuous testing at it. With botch we can create a build order and then verify it once enough source packages have build profile information attached. Should Debian not have sufficient resources for that I am willing to do those rebuilds on my own hardware. The bitrot will happen even if bootstrap data is added out of necessity. Due to changing dependencies, some stage1 information might not be needed anymore at some point because it becomes better to break cycles at another point of the graph. So continuous testing is needed in any case. > I'm happy that tools like botch exist and think botch has been a useful > accelerator for bootstrappability of Debian.

If you plan to wire up botch to wanna-build for archive-friendly > bootstrappability, that would be great to see! I would need to know far more about wanna-build until I can do that. I'm also not too sure whether wanna-build is the right machinery to do bootstraps from scratch? Maybe it is in the sense that botch could provide the info of which source package to best build with reduced build dependencies once nothing is buildable anymore. But it would probably be prudent to show that such an automated bootstrap is possible without wanna-build in the first place. And we are still quite far away from being able to do automated bootstraps, sadly :( > But until that's happened, I stand by my claim that stage1 data not needed > for breaking build-dep loops is counterproductive for bootstrapping ports. I agree with you that it is unwise to add such extra information to more packages than needed (currently about 60 source packages) before there is enough infrastructure to run and test everything. But again, except for self-cycles there are no hard requirements on a source package needing stage1 annotations. Botch can show which source packages, if modified accordingly could solve the problem with a (close to) minimal number of source packages changed. But if one source package cannot be changed because of technical reasons or because the maintainer refuses to implement these changes, then there are ways to work around that by modifying other source packages. But I guess that's what you meant by "need". I guess either once jessie is released or once the wheezy backport happens, build profiles will slowly be introduced with the most obvious packages first. Then will come the other, harder packages until we can for example do a native amd64 bootstrap, starting from a minimal build system. Once we are that far (and that will probably take another release at least) we can talk again about adding "bootstrap-specific metadata unnecessarily". :) So let me retract my claim from my earlier email and instead say that I agree that adding annotation should be done very selectively and only if necessary. Nevertheless the generated information should be stored somewhere so that a bootstrapper can use it as a source of information which build dependencies can be dropped without much effort from a source package if so necessary. cheers, josch -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The small footprint CIM client (sfcc) library is a C API allowing client applications to interface with CIM (Common Information Model) implemenations (e.g. CIM servers).
