Description Andrew Overholt CLA 2010-01-14 16:43:00 EST
The Linux Tools project (technology.linux-distros) may join Helios.  I will attach a patch for org.eclipse.helios.build to add our features.

Add linuxtools.build and modify helios.build to include Linux Tools features.

I ran a local Helios build and while it failed, it didn't appear to be Linux Tools-related :)

Its been failing a lot lately :( 
I'll take a look soon. 
You have commit rights to that callisto directory, right?

I'm not sure, but I didn't want to commit anything in case I broke it :)

I looked, and you do have membership in calliso-dev. 

I was going to look at/commit the patch, but it doesn't apply cleanly any longer. Guess someone else changed some files already. 

So, can you re-attach a new patch against current head ... or, commit the changes your self? Its ok if you break a build ... as long as you fix it :) 

But seriously, I will be attending to this today and this weekend. I've already fixed one error and its running now. Not sure what else we might hit. But, do feel free to try ... or, new patch if you'd prefer.

Committed.  I trust I'll be notified if it breaks the build :)  Should I leave this open until our stuff ends up in a successful build?

Success or failure, I think?

Most the projects I work on mark a bug as fixed, as soon as "release for a build" ... but its still polite to confirm is it really fixed :) 

The build triggered by your change may not complete due to the "zest problem" ... which I heard "should be fixed this weekend".
Comment 8 David Williams CLA 2010-01-15 15:55:15 EST
Ah, seeing the results reminds me ... not on success. Often not even on failure. 

There's some "blame" heuristics built in, so it sends email only to those "responsible". Its fairly accurate .... and so far, its not blaming you. :) 

There's a dependency problem between two other components. So, once that's fixed, you might still get a "fail" notice over the weekend (or, whenever current break is fixed).

The latest build succeeded so I promoted what ever we have to 'staging'. 

You can verify your stuff is actually there by testing against
