basically since these branches are old, and there will be a greater than zero amount of work to get lint-r to pass (on the new ubuntu workers), sean and i are proposing to remove the lint-r checks for the builds. this is super not important for the 2.4 cut/code freeze, but i wanted to get this done before it gets pushed down my queue and before we revisit the ubuntu port. thanks in advance, shane -- Shane Knapp UC Berkeley EECS Research / RISELab Staff Technical Lead https://rise.cs.berkeley.edu
