Ok, patched repo is available as:
http://android.git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=tools/repo.git%3Ba=blob_plain%3Bf=rep... that file should be downloaded and named as "repo". Apparently, it should be mirrored at download servers.
Right. where shall we put it? i think for AOSP you get it from an android.git.k.o URL. do we want to do something equivalent (e.g. android.git.l.o) or just put it on releases.linaro.org?
It should be treated as a released components: releases.l.o, update release wiki/website download links. If it could be provided as upstream does (on android.git.l.o), +1.
the patched version is available on:
http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/android/11.08/repo/repo-linaro-...
http://launchpad.net/linaro-android/11.11/11.08/+download/repo-linaro-1.7.5-...
and linked from: http://www.linaro.org/downloads/ http://wiki.linaro.org/Cycles/1108/Release#Android_Components
hmm. the AOSP repo can be wgetted without unpacking ...you basically just download the lightweight wrapper script instead of a tarball. IMO we should offer the same on top of the whole tarball as a component.
I don't see any difference between wget && chmod +x vs wget && bunzip2 I don't have a strong opinion on how AOSP does vs how Linaro components does.
As pointed out by folks, it's rather expectable to fetch bootstrap script and be running it directly. As to where to place it, we don't have direct access to android.git.linaro.org, so either that needs to go thru IS (James, could you handle this?), or I'd suggest putting it at somewhere like
http://releases.linaro.org/platform/android/repo
(yep, non-milestoned meta-util).
Also this is not a 1108 component. it's 11.09 if anything.
Paul mentioned an 11.08 errata.
Yes, I meant that patched repo we release now is needed to properly fetch previous release 11.08 (and likely, older too). So, for 11.08 release notes, errata should be issued. On asac's request, I'm doing complete matrix testing of 11.08 fetchability, and will provide detailed results a bit later.
