Helmut Grohne and others have been working on automated rebootstrap of the Debian archive. The rebootstrap_s390x_gcc49_nobiarch jenkins job seems to be in good shape currently. That is by no means a full archive bootstrap, which requires more things. https://wiki.debian.org/HelmutGrohne/rebootstrap https://jenkins.debian.net/view/rebootstrap/ https://wiki.debian.org/DebianBootstrap https://wiki.debian.org/Sprints/2014/BootstrapSprint -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
