Hey guys, Does anyone have any scripts that they use for mass-rebuilds (such as the readline rebuild)? I would like to get more tools of the sort into devtools, so want to see if anyone has anything existing that I could import / use for this purpose.
If not, I will write one to do this with makechrootpkg (yay, chroots) to make this easier.
Cheers, Aaron
Not directly but the attached script could be useful. It takes a file of package names and determines the order they need built. At the moment it parses pacman output to get depends so it misses makedeps so that needs fixed.
Looks neat - might be useful in devtools on its own.
Can makeworld be adjusted to do what you are looking for?
Hmm probably not. I was thinking something like: $ omg-rebuilds /path/to/svn/checkout /path/to/chroot/dir -- readline bash foo bar baz Or something to that effect, that would not only build all packages in a chroot, but auto-bump the pkgrels and dump the correct results to your svn dir, for a later run of testingpkg...
