weekly live build ISOs missing for 8/12/24 cycle

2024-08-14 Thread Steven Cariglia

All,

https://get.debian.org/images/weekly-live-builds/amd64/iso-hybrid/

There doesn't seem to be anything but, logs and checksums i.e. no ISO 
files? Is there some way to build these ISOs via jigdo?


I download these all the time (especially when a new build e.g. trixie 
is months away). I don't think there's an easy way to update the kernel 
live (maybe kpatch, but, I don't know).


Anyway, just thought I'd let you know that something different has 
happened during this weekly cycle.


Thanks in any case,

Steve Cariglia

The ISO files were generated, but due to zsync missing in trixie 
(#1075710 and #1078442) they were not published.


Next Monday a new batch will be available automatically.

@Steve: There is (from my point of view) no direct reason to enforce a 
re-trigger now. The cause has been fixed, so a new run will be OK, next 
Monday.

Weekly ARM64 live image not yet available

2024-08-14 Thread Roland Clobus

Hello Steve, list,

The weekly build of the GNOME live image for arm64 has not seen a 
website update since 2024-07-26.
There have been 2 Mondays since then, so at least the logs should have 
been updated. (Or is arm64 on a different time schedule(


Are the newer (unpublished) logs informative? At least last Monday, they 
should have bailed out due to the zsync-issue, but the older logs are 
still published.


With kind regards,
Roland Clobus

Correct.

About CONFIGURATION_FROM_GIT
https://salsa.debian.org/live-team/live-build/-/merge_requests/360/diffs#9221863742451e920c978c9e0eb2f9bd58bf2777_212_214

I recommend to build the image like all others.
Debian Junior is also part of live-tasks:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/live-tasks

live-task-debian-junior

Maybe like this:

"debian-junior")
INSTALLER="live"
PACKAGES="live-task-debian-junior"

In this case, we also following the "upload" process and the
image will be build of files which are part of Debian already.

No, from my side it's not required to have a weekly build, yet.
First, I would like to see if everything is working as expected.

Good question. :) The package is a meta package,.. I'm not sure
about functional tests on meta packages. Be honest, I didn't
think about openQA.

Sure, when the image would be build based on the
CONFIGURATION_FROM_GIT, it would be important. But I think it
shouldn't be build bases on the repository itself.

Thanks a lot for you help.
