Usage of monotone.openmoko.org

[Thomas Wood]

Hi,


Further to the discussion on bug 1152 [1], I would like to seek some
clarification on the use cases for monotone.openmoko.org.

The problem hilighted in bug 1152 is that monotone.openmoko.org is not
currently buildable if you are using the autorev feature of bitbake.
This is necessary for OpenMoko developers to make sure the OpenMoko
components are built from the very latest revisions in SVN. Currently,
OpenMoko SVN depends on features not available in monotone.openmoko.org.


Secondly, I will soon have a new problem. I am currently working on
integrating PackageKit into an OpenMoko build. This will require updates
in OpenMoko package versions as it will require dbus >= 1.1.1. I have
already got dbus 1.1.1 added to OpenEmbedded but I am unsure what the
expected procedure is with regards to monotone.openmoko.org. Should I
integrate PackageKit into OpenEmbedded first or into
monotone.openmoko.org first?


Finally, I think the big questions is whether monotone.openmoko.org is
specifically for third party developers, or should core OpenMoko
developers be using it as well.


Regards,

Thomas
