Good morning,

I'm back to my upstreaming activities for a few hours.

A couple of things to mention:

1) At this very minute it is Sunday January 19th on my side of the
world.  I wanted to install the latest and greatest vexpress-lsk build
and as such went on [1] and selected build 147 (the newest at this
time).  The build finish time indicate "2014-01-18 21:10:33" so I
assumed I'd be good. Clicking on the "Download" button brings me to
the snapshot page [2] but it's empty - no images can be found there
albeit no mention of a build failure for build 147.  The same holds
true for build 146.  One has to go back to build 145 to see images.
This look abnormal to me and may highlight an error in the process
that takes images from jenkins and publish them on the snapshot
server.
#146 & #147 did not build successfully. Both failed while fetching the code. The build status indicates as "Not Built".

2) I have recently introduced the user space application "nfacct" to
our Android code base but forgot to push the config file where the
binary name would be added to PRODUCT_PACKAGES.  As such the code is
there but not being built.  I want to fix that but need input on how
to proceed.  I can either add it to "device/linaro/vexpress/device.mk"
or "device/linaro/common/common.mk".  In my opinion the latter would
be better as we add it once for all Linaro supported device.  The
problem is that for default.xml on branch "linaro_android_4.4.2"
"device/linaro/common" is set to "linaro-jb".  I would submit a patch
for that but you may have reasons for not upgrading it to "linaro-kk".

If I submit a fix for "device/linaro/vexpress/device.mk" it's easy as
the branch already points to "linaro-kk".

So two avenues here:

1) The android team move "device/linaro/common" to "linaro-kk" in
default.xml on branch "linaro_android_4.4.2" and the I submit a fix to
add nfacct on top of that.
+1. I have updated the manifest.

2) I fix it only in "device/linaro/vexpress/device.mk" for "linaro-kk"
but only vexpress gets to have "nfacct".

Thanks,
Mathieu
