Description Andreas K. Hüttel archtester gentoo-dev 2021-05-07 14:36:44 UTC
I'm helping blueness migrating the musl jobs into our standard amd64 stage build system.

For that it would be helpful to be able to ssh into pardalote and su/sudo to fix things.

Pretty please?

Generally speaking the machine is managed by puppet so 'su / sudoing' to fix things seems like an antipattern.

Everything on the box is basically in the releng repo; so please make your changes to that repo and they will get synced out?

How can I e.g. create needed directories and upload a seed stage?
Comment 3 Andreas K. Hüttel archtester gentoo-dev 2021-05-08 20:10:43 UTC
Also... is the setup for the releng hosts documented anywhere? e.g., which script calls what script where...

(I know how catalyst and catalyst-auto works, I'm interested in the things around it.)

There's a heap of stuff in the releng repo, and I guess nobody knows how much of it is still really in use and where.

Reading the source is not really helpful if the hosts and the triggering setup (puppet?) are accessible by infra only.

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Antarus#Releng_Releases describes how releases are populated.

I believe you have root on demeter; which is the machine we replaced pardalote with. I'm going to close this open request.
