hi all, while toying around with managing a few python packages in git, i noticed that the post-receive hook installed by the "setup-repository" script is not working as advertised.
for one thing, it complains that "dam.homelinux.net:9418" is unreachable (and indeed that name cannot be resolved via DNS). this is one of the KGB bot servers, configured for all repositories in /git/python-modules/kgb-client.conf. according to Gregor Herrmann of the KGB team¹, that host has "changed quite some time ago", with the new name being kgb.ktnx.org, as documented on https://kgb.alioth.debian.org/alioth.html. maybe some of the admins can update the kgb-configuration. another problem is a spurious complaint about "Invalid revision range 000000..<commitish>". i haven't been able to track that down yet, but will report back if i find something. fgmar IOhannes ¹ here's transcript of my conversation with gregor: 21:56 < umlaeute> gregoa: the python-modules team uses dam.homelinux.net:9418 as one of the KGB-servers, which is non-responding 21:56 < umlaeute> actually it doesn't resolve 21:56 < umlaeute> i've been told that you might be in the know 21:57 < umlaeute> or should that server not be used at all? 21:58 < gregoa> umlaeute: the servername changed quite some time ago. the current one(s) are here: https://kgb.alioth.debian.org/alioth.html 21:58 < gregoa> umlaeute: dam.homelinux.net -> kgb.ktnx.org 22:03 < umlaeute> gregoa: thx 22:04 < gregoa> np
