[clc-devel] Accounts on crux.nu for former CLC members
Hi there, It's time to move to crux.nu for ports maintainance, and I'd like to ask all former CLC maintainers to send a quick mail mentioning whether they want to join the now unified CRUX project, and if they'd be interested in maintaining some of Per's ports from base or opt. We decided to maintain just two collections: 1) core: this collection contains more or less what's on the CD, and will be slighly bigger than the former base 2) opt: this is basically the old opt (minus what went into core), plus our former 'contrib'; most ports from you will probably go here. There's a subversion tutorial in the works at http://crux.nu/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/wiki/SvnHowTo Please ask if there are specific questions. Once you have an account on crux.nu, you'll be able to edit the Wiki, and depending on your access permissions you'll have access to several parts of the subversion repository. If you experience errors while commiting, please let me know; we might have minor errors in the access control setup, even though we've tested it and it seemed fine. I hope to hear from you soon, and that we'll manage to get the changes done as soon as possible. Since many things went quite fast and chances are we (I) haven't been too clear about certain things, please feel free to ask for clarifications if needed!

Yes, I'd like to work on the unified CRUX project, including ports from base and opt (since I'm already maintaining the unofficial errata repository).

Looks pretty clear to me. The only thing I'm not sure about is how we are going to authenticate with the server. Great work so far, by the way! // Jukka

Hi :) Please note that some base/opt ports have already been adopted, and that list will grow as more of you join the new project. To avoid duplicated efforts, you can use something like this to see who's maintaining what: In your newly checked out svn/crux-2.1/ports/core ;) for i in *; do printf '%-20s' $i; egrep 'Maintainer' $i/Pkgfile | \ sed -r 's|.*Maintainer *:? *||' done And of course, ask Per if he still wants to maintain it before stealing it away.

Two remarks: 1. To test the new collection, build and install the core/svup port from your subversion checkout; the ports will be installed into /usr/ports/svn for now 2. We decided to get rid of the $Id:$ keywords; there's a script in http://crux.nu/svn/tools/scripts/ to do that.

If it's ok with yall i'd like to maintain the Faq still. I can edit it however you guys would like. -j On 11/15/05, Johannes Winkelmann <jw@tks6.net> wrote:

Hi, I would much appreciate if my cvs access (account name: sten) would be migrated to the new subversion crux.nu server. At what point do we say to CRUX users "cvsup is stale now!" For example: KDE 3.5 comes out next week. Should I update the old cvs/contrib, update the new subversion/opt (once my account is created), update both; or wait for the CRUX/CLC merge to complete, and keep users happy with KDE 3.5 via httpup in the meantime? Regarding CRUX base: I'm not sure who to send this to at this point, but I found patch for glibc, which lets it pass tst-cancel17. I've been running this minorly-patched glibc for about a week and half now, and it's rock solid. Anyone interested can sync from here: http://members.shaw.ca/nick.steeves/ports/glibc/ One little "tech itch" of mine, is that I prefer to run a system which can rebuild itself from source, without disabling any "make test". One of the applications of such an ability could be a FreeBSD-like "make upgradeworld" for base. From what I remember of Per's makefile, the bootstrap function is pretty much "make buildworld". "upgradeworld" would check for runlevel 1, and if the system is in single-user mode, then go ahead and update base. It doesn't seem like it would add much complexity to the makefile, but is such an idea superfluous? Cheers, Nick

I'd actually like to make the switch happen by the end of this week, but I'm not sure if we'll have all required ports imported until then. We'll see.

Count me in for the new CRUX project layout. I can also take care of some of the core ports if needed, here's a quick list of my potential targets: cdrtools, iptables, jfsutils, lilo, openssh, perl, rpm2targz svup, unzip, vim, wget, windowmaker, xfsprogs, zip Since in the new core there are some ports that are 'more core than the others', I think a list by Per of the ports he'd like to delegate would be helpful.

Hi, of course I also want to take part in the new project. It seems to be very nice! Great work so far! Concering the topic on having access to core and/or opt I think that I won't need access to core. I don't maintain any of these ports. Perhaps I will in the future but now it isn't necessary. At the moment I am only maintaining three ports which I will add to the new opt repository but I could also take over some ports if the maintainer of it doesn't want them anymore. At the end I want to say that I am also interested in the question concering the repository which we should use now. The old (CVS) one, the new one or both? Regards Viper

Short answer to both questions: yes. I agree with Simone, that a list of ports, Per wants to get rid off, would be helpful. Greetings Jürgen -- Juergen Daubert | mailto:jue@jue.li Korb, Germany | http://jue.li/crux

Yes, I'd like to participate as well :) In general, I'm also interested in helping out with base/opt. I'll be able to name some port once I've figured out which one's are taken ;) Regards, Tilman
