If it's just that I could test them, but this still be no LTS version that I |
26 |
would look at. |

Just some background: these machines run CMake and some other software nightly |
29 |
builds, which starts ~3:00 and takes them until the afternoon. I have chroots |
30 |
for stabilization and keywording on them, and the tatt scripts will wait if |
31 |
any process of my buildbot user (that's just the name, not the software) is |
32 |
active. If the nightlies are done, then the tatt scripts will continue and hog |
33 |
the machine. |
34 |
|
35 |
I will do a kernel upgrade usually if the machine crashed anyway, which means |
36 |
every few weeks, and then I go to the most recent version. |
