Zitat von Neal Norwitz
I've been starting to get some of the buildbots working again. There was some massive problem on May 25 where a ton of extra files were left around. I can't remember if I saw something about that at the NFS sprint or not.
You can clean each buildbot remotely by forcing a build on a (non-existing) branch. That removes the build tree, and then tries to build the branch (which fails if the branch doesn't exist). The next build will then start with a fresh checkout of the trunk.
There is a lingering problem that I can't fix on all the boxes. Namely:
cp Modules/Setup{.dist,}
Should we always do that step before we build on the buildbots?
If so, the easiest way to do it would be to "make distclean" in the clean step: that removes Modules/Setup as well.
Any objections?
See above. Rather than copying Modules/Setup over, I'd prefer to see a distclean. Regards, Martin
