[Scummvm-devel] Build machine status

[Max Horn]

Hi folks,

just a brief update: I have been very busy at work (attending  
conferences, writing an interim version of my thesis which I could  
show to my supervisor, which he needed in turn to sign some stuff  
which then insures I'll get fundings for a further year *g*). Hence I  
was super-busy, too (like Eugene -- real life really can take up  
quite some time ;-).

Still, I have setup a test install of BuildBot on my own machine,  
which currently only builds a "plain vanilla" version of ScummVM from  
head, and also the DS build (only one of the 6 or 7 variants right  
now, though). I need to invest some more work to make it easy to  
setup builds which require an alternate build chain. Once that is  
ready, I plan to rent a machine (VPS), at which point I'll require  
assistance in setting up the Debian machine: User config, disabling  
unused services, installing buildbot .debs, config of the webserver,  
etc.
Right now, I can't really give a good estimate of when that will  
happen, but I *hope* it'll be either next weekend, or in three weeks.  
But no hard promises, my schedule is too uncertain these days :-/.


Cheers,
Max
