Hi,

 Arnout>  As part of the test of the disable-doc patch I just sent, I

 Arnout> - The following fail to build:

 Arnout>  * classpath
 Arnout>  * diffutils
 Arnout>  * gpsd
 Arnout>  * ipsec-tools
 Arnout>  * linux-pam
 Arnout>  * ltp-testsuite
 Arnout>  * matchbox-desktop
 Arnout>  * metacity
 Arnout>  * webkit
 Arnout>  * neard
 Arnout>  * netatalk
 Arnout>  * network-manager
 Arnout>  * pcmanfm
 Arnout>  * pv
 Arnout>  * sconeserver-http-sconesite-image
 Arnout>  * xdriver_xf86-video-geode
 Arnout>  * xdriver_xf86-input-synaptics
 Arnout>  * valgrind (because glibc 2.16 is not supported, needs valgrind bump)
 Arnout>  * xstroke
 Arnout>  * grub
 Arnout>  * uboot (wrong ARCH parameter)

 Arnout>  midori and jamvm are not built because they depend on the above.

Interesting, and better than I feared ;) Do you have the build errors
archived somewhere? I would like to see atleast the classpath issue.


 Arnout>  There are a few more that fail to build in my environment if the
 Arnout> libxml2/mesa3d and linux-fusion patches are not applied. Also xenomai
 Arnout> must be extracted manually before the build, otherwise linux fails to
 Arnout> build.

 Arnout> - About 920 packages (host+target) are built, from 843 source
 Arnout> tarballs.

 Arnout> - legal-info succeeds without problems, except that sylpheed's
 Arnout> license file is not correctly defined.

Ok, could you provide a bit more info or send patches, please?

 Arnout> - The output directory (including all these images) is 31GB: 21GB
 Arnout> for build, 6.5GB for images, 2.9GB for host of which 2GB for staging.
 Arnout> The sources (excluding toolchain) are 1.6GB.

 Arnout> - Time for a clean build (without ccache and JLEVEL=3) on my laptop
 Arnout> is 6 hours. A yocto build takes roughly the same time on my laptop,
 Arnout> but has less than half as many packages.

Heh. Nice, it seems doable to do this on a relatively regular schedule.

Thanks!
