Re: [Monotone-devel] Intermittent buildbots, Buildbot on Windows, and runit on Mac OS X

[Rob Schoening]

One thing that might be helpful for x86-based systems is to use a VM for these buildbots.   For instance, one person could set them up once inside VMWare server (free) and then distribute the image to whomever was willing to host one.

 

It would work for windows too, but OS licensing issues would deter sharing images.

 

I have some spare capacity and would be willing to host a virtual buildbot server so long as the maintenance is minimal.

I have set up a buildbot for my Gentoo system at home and it's working
great. I'd like to offer buildbots for MingW and Mac OS X but I don't
have dedicated machines for this and the buildbots would have to be up
and down depending on what I'm doing on my machines. Would the
community still find these useful?

If I am to run a Mac OS X buildbot I'll need help with runit. I'm
attempting to install via macports and manually but both are failing
with the same usage error within the compiling:
https://svn.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/12300

If I am to run a buildbot on MingW....how? I don't see any Windows
instructions on the BuildBot page and I have heard that runit
shouldn't(?) be used. Does anyone have instructions for how to set up
a buildbot on Windows?
