thanks paul for clarifying the status.

All this was saying was that the currently provided "cut & paste" instructions don't work... and hoped to raise awareness to fix them...

I fully agree. And that's even without mentioning that formatting of those instructions leaves much to be desired (they require horizontal scrolling, etc.) Fortunately, we just made another step towards improving that - Andy Doan's initial script for reproducing a build locally was just fully deployed, so there will be a download_and_build.sh script available for download alongside each build. Users who just want to build a thing, can run it and get the result without all that horizontal scrolling. And folks who interested in details can go on and read it - it's just the perfect, consistent, always up-to-date (hopefully) executable documentation ;-).

Hi,

playing with hackbox.linaro.org I found that the copy paste instructions for

https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/snowball-ics-gcc46-i...

...

fail with broken cert for the wget command....

I needed: wget --no-check-certificate ${TOOLCHAIN_URL}

Thanks for updating instructions accordingly...

This is not a correct fix. The correct one is to not use https:// URLs for any downloads, but instead http: ones under http://android-build.linaro.org/download/ , in this case:

http://android-build.linaro.org/download/linaro-android_toolchain-4.6-bzr/la...

They are available for like half a year now. It's probably time to remove --no-check-certificate from the build scripts to make sure that all cases where deprecated internal URLs are used are updated and they are not used again.

Actually, by now, even http://android-build.linaro.org/download/ links might have been gone, and we might have disabled Jenkins archiving for toolchains, like we did for platform builds (because free space on android-build keeps slowly melting away). Well, as can be seen from the link quoted above, it can't be done so far, because snapshots.linaro.org doesn't support symlinks like "lastSuccessful". Deepti, these apparently should be generated by the script you currently develop ( https://code.launchpad.net/~deeptik/linaro-license-protection/publish-to-sna...https://code.launchpad.net/%7Edeeptik/linaro-license-protection/publish-to-snapshot/+merge/96735 )

Ok, this is tracked as https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-android-infrastructure/+bug/950870 . I've made changes to build configs over weekend to daily builds. So, please update your individual builds to use the link above. Feel free to report any issues to the ticket.

Corresponding section was also added to https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Infrastructure/infrastructure-knowledgebase... for future reference.
