I'm trying to fix the script that creates the JMeter nightly builds listing.
Turns out that Ubuntu (I assume the script runs on the master) and FreeBSD don't agree on what options ls(1) uses to specify the date format. [Seems unlikely that using find(1) -ls would be any better in this regard] I've tried using my Ubuntu VM and that does not even seem to agree with the results from buildbot either. Rather than keep tweaking the shell script to fit the specific local dialect of commands such as ls(1), is there a generic scripting language such as Perl that is guaranteed to be available on buildbot? I could then test the script on Minotaur (and my Ubuntu VM) and have some hope of it working (and being easier to maintain) on buildbot.
