There has to be a better way than that, in the past there was automatic<br>
testing that replied on COPR(a web based rpm build system for Fedora)<br>
building the rpms. What is missing from git for packaging is a rpm <a href="http://spec.in" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">spec.in</a><br>
for Fedora and whatever Debain uses that could be set via the Makefile,<br>
officially blessed by SugarLabs for other developers. Fedora has their spec<br>
file under git control for their release purposes, same holds true at OLPC<br>
where rpms are created for the XO's use but there is no reason not to have<br>
the packaging files freely available anyway, with that in place generating<br>
rpm out of git becomes so much easier. This will greatly help with testing<br>
as then anybody can now point COPR at their own git repo to generate a<br>
snapshot and build the rpms to test without having to roll the source rpm<br>
first. All you need to do is dnf enable your own copr repo and dnf update<br>
and test away like how I tested the issues with F23. Now making things<br>
easier for everybody should help trying to make sugar better, that is the<br>
objective right? It opens the possibility that someone can resurrect the<br>
automatic test suite that was in place in the past working again.<br>
