[cross-project-issues-dev] Build server upgrade -- status

[Denis Roy <denis.roy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Folks,

Yesterday I upgraded the build server to SLES 11 SP1 (from SLES10 SP2).  
It all went surprisingly well, but there are some issues :

- subversion: because SVN is not packaged with our entreprise OS, it has 
to be compiled.  The upgrade process removed the compiled package we 
had, and now we must hunt down the dependencies and troubleshoot the 
compilation issues.

- git: same as above

- NNTP and forums: a major upgrade occurred to the NNTP daemon, and now 
it refuses to start.  We need to troubleshoot this.

- build2: since it relies on build to be always there, it is currently 
spaced out and in need of a cold restart.

There will be other issues that will crop up, but for now this is what 
is on our radar.  If you see other issues, please open a bug against 
community/servers.

Thanks for your understanding,

Denis
