We are soliciting + feedback from users prior to making 'aptitude' the default. To + enable it, set "$build_dep_resolver='aptitude';" in your + configuration. Please report any discrepancies in its behaviour + compared with the 'internal' resolver. It is hoped that once it + has been shown to work reliably and correctly, it will become the + default resolver used on the buildd network; it is already in use + on buildds autobuilding experimental. + + The older 'internal' resolver is still used by the buildds, so + packages intended for upload should use + "$build_dep_resolver='internal';" to build using exactly the same + dependencies that should be used by the buildds. + + -- Roger Leigh <rleigh@debian.org> Tue, 09 Nov 2010 16:32:18 +0000 |
