Hi there
I'm having an issue with the ABS and how it's working.
I've read, that the ABS is based on a similar concept such as *BSD's
ports system.
On e.g. FreeBSD, I can use poudriere to handle the ports and it's
dependents recompilation.
E.g. ffmpeg provides libavcodec.so, libavdevice.so, libavfilter.so,
libavformat.so, libavutil.so
Firefox depends on ffmpeg and poudriere handles like so: if a .so file
get's changed, it recompiles ffmpeg to provide the .so and recompiles
all dependent packages.
(within also firefox).
Has the official Arch build server anything similar to poudriere, so a
rebuild of packages e.g. ffmpeg would trigger a recompilation of e.g.
firefox, to match with the latest version again.
The reason for this is, I would like to use a repo-snapshot of the Arch
archive as main-repo and backport security-patches from the gitlab
sources to a custom repo.
While I could just do it manually, which would be a pain to manage and
packages which depend on it hard to find, I'm asking, if there is
anything comparable to poudriere on FreeBSD for Arch Linux, which I can
selfhost?
Thanks.
