Hello,
We're having from time to time issues with initializing builds slaves
due to issue with Ubuntu EC2 package mirror problems. Ubuntu EC2 team
is aware of the problem and invites us to participate in testing a
new mirror which should solve these issues. More details are in:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android-infrastructure/+bug/932088
I guess it's a good move to help test this new mirror, so I'd like to
see if anyone has big concerns with that, and otherwise I'll add it to
my queue. The change should be transparent to Android Build users, and
if we see any issues (like higher error rate than usual), we can easily
revert.
Thanks,
Paul

Hi,
I would like to know if there is some plan to support the new revision of the i.MX53 ? There is a new PMIC so USB and others devices don't work anymore until this support.
There is the support from FreeScale opensource repository and others repository but the version of the kernel is totally different from Linaro (2.6.38 for example for FreeScale and 3.1 for Linaro) but it seems to be the only solution to "adapt" the code from theses repository ...
Best regards,
Hello,
Please take a few minutes and fill in your reports.
Note that the team status is distributed widely and is of great interest
for many stakeholders. The team status is what I extract from your reports,
and the more I have to work with, the better it can get. So please don't be
too terse, use a couple of more words than the absolute minimum for a full
English sentence:)
This is also a good opportunity to check your bugs and blueprints. Make
sure they are up-to-date and reflect reality. If nothing has happened to
the work item, maybe there is a story behind this that can be told as a
comment?
For the bug reports, If you have managed to resolve a bug and can put it in
state "Fix Committed" Please make sure the following data is included:
- Reference to an official build that has been verified to not have the bug
- An explanation of how this verification took place.
Personally I also appreciate when someone explains how the root cause was
found. Such knowledge sharing can help other team members, and it can
reassure sceptics that the applied logic is sound.
Example:
Bug title: Feature X does not work on board Y.
Final comment: Feature X works on build Z for board Y, verified by
demonstrating that App Q now can play a .xyz file. The reason was an
overflow in the 16-bit beancounter, and the bug was found
by examining logcat output when decoding .xyz files with increasing sample
rates. A collection of good test files is found at: http://url.com.

Hi all,
In order to bring-up my panda-es, I was trying to repo sync sources
from linaro repositories.
But, thats giving me error.
repo init -u git://git.linaro.org/platform/manifest.git -b
linaro_android_4.0.3 -m landing-panda.xml
The above command is returning me an error:
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
I thought that aosp-master
'https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest' should be working
fine with the panda-es.
But, there were two problems:
1. 'usbboot' provided with the source is not detecting my board.
2. I'm not sure about the sources of boot-loaders. (and I don't want
to use fast-boot method).
3. Till now I'm unable to patch linaro u-boot (u-boot-linaro-stable)
in such a way that it should work with my aosp-AFS and aosp-kernel.
So, right now I'm clueless.!!
:)
I would really appreciate any help on this.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Ashwini Singh
Paul,
Would you get Andrey setup to push to android.git.linaro.org?
We should name it
kernel/kwg.git
Sound good with everyone?

Hello,
Recently, Ubuntu revoked sun-java6-* packages following retirement of
its license:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2012-January/001…
It propagated to the repositories we use for android-build.linaro.org
slaves on this weekend. The end effect of this besides builds not being
able to proceed, is slave pile-up issue, as Jenkins, seeing an
initialization error for one slave, tries to start another, all going
in cycles. As it's pretty late in here, the action I'm taking is
disabling builds altogether, to proceed with resolving this first thing
in the morning (access to previous builds is still available).
Proposed actions are:
1. Install sun-java6-* from cached .deb's as risk-mitigating measure
while analyzing the issue.
2. Consider/test switching to OpenJDK, as recommended by
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynx/ReleaseNotes/Java6Transition . Note
that sun-java6 have been, and still is, listed by Google as the Android
build prerequisite: http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
However, there were success reports with OpenJDK from individual
developers previously.
