## Old Business Release {beowulf,chimaera}-proposed-updates?

## Old Actions

## New Business

### LeePen

#### Packaging
* ceres: pcsc-lite, packagekit, colord, dbus, openvpn, network-manager,
policykit-1, slim, reportbug (also see below)
* chimaera-backports: rsyslog
* beowulf-backports: openvpn

#### Reportbug Version 11.4.0devuan2 in ceres prompts the user to
consider sending reports on unforked packages directly to Debian. The
user has to actively agree and the default remains to send to Devuan's
BTS.

#### Devscripts-devuan I have working scripts to:-
* list source packages that need updating (devuan-src-needs-update)
* automatically merge new Debian versions (devuan-update-source) They
  need better names! Ideas welcome. Tito suggested
  * devuan-src-version-ck
  * devuan-src-ver-ck (plasma41)'s ideas:
  * devuan-out-of-date-check, d1ood (for devuan out of date), d1resync,
    d1sync
  * devuan-merge-changelog, dev1change, d1ch Will complete packaging in
    the next few days. Ideas for or contributions of useful scripts
    welcome.
* (hendrik) do they watch out for Debian introducing systemd
  dependencies?

#### Jenkins
* Needs upgrading, core and plugins. Propose to do this tomorrow
  morning.
* Updated build script being
  [tested](https://jenkins.devuan.dev/job/test-pipeline/). Latest
  improvements:-
  * no use of jenkins-debian-glue hookscripts
  * cowbuilder chroot preparation/update now in separate stage
  * autopkgtests now in separate stage
  * autopkgtests no longer fail if there are arch:all versioned depends
    (e.g.dbus)

### golinux
* Lars and I decided to flip the color polarity of the background. Looks
quite nice on my desktop:

### rrq
* polishing the infra/ scripting. esp made load graph more easily
tunable, and added an "rwhod report sniffer" to allow capture of rwhod
reports over other than on localnet (esp dev1nsd), plus a new, fancy
"things ar boxes" hosting diagram.
* discussed with bb|hcb possible restructuring of VMs into "container"
style services so as to avoid the added load of emulation(s). Platform
contenders would so far be chroot(bespoke), lxc(ibm/google) or
docker(microsoft).
