pogo:~murray/check-for-errors.sh greps for error patterns in A*/make.log
flock-build currently makes 20 different copies of make.log
Checking for errors by hand is likely to miss something due to operator
fatigue.
This is my attempt to avoid that.
pogo:~murray/local-build.sh runs flock_build on just the local system.
Running flock-build on pogo takes a looooooong time, so I really want to
catch all of the gross bugs before I get that far. This lets you run the 4
cases on your own system before wasting time on pogo.
The genetic diversity of the flock is pretty small these days. This also
lets you run it on your local environment(s).
Corrections/tweaks encouraged. I'd be happy if somebody adopted them and
merged them into the official recipe.
I don't really understand the build/flock-build area.
It requires that you don't run configure in the directory you are working in,
but that's the normal part of my development cycle.
I assume there is another way, but I haven't figured it out yet. Is there
some simple idea I'm missing?
Currently, I setup another directory (bk clone/pull, bootstrap), copy the
patches over and run test-build.sh there. (I suppose that could be a good
staging area for bits to send to pogo, but I haven't gotten that organized
yet.)
