[Fusionforge-general] About our Jenkins buildbot and test suites

Hello,
As you probably all know by now, we have a Jenkins instance at
http://buildbot.fusionforge.org/ that runs various test suites on our
code to check for installability and avoid regressions.
We currently have a few problems with that setup:
- It seems a package required by PHPunit is no longer available in
CentOS 6 (it used to be there until a few days ago). Please have a
look at the console output for the fusionforge-master-src-centos6 job;
it doesn't speak much to me as a Debian guy, but my understanding is
that the php-symfony2-Yaml package used to be distributed in the EPEL
repository but is no longer. Any fix would be welcome.
- The fusionforge-52-rpm-centos5 job also fails regularly. The most
prominent error message I can find seems to be rpm complaining about
"DB_VERSION_MISMATCH: Database environment version mismatch". Again,
I don't understand it clearly, but a fix would be nice.
- The fusionforge-51-rpm-centos5 job also fails regularly. I'm inclined
to just let it die peacefully, as it's been disabled for a year and
nobody complained.
- Both fusionforge-master-rpm-centos5 and fusionforge-master-rpm-centos6
are disabled, and have been for quite some time too. If I recall
correctly, this was to avoid a disk space leak: since old builds
weren't cleaned up, each build would eat a few dozen megabytes,
resulting in out-of-disk conditions on unrelated jobs. Is anyone
interested in fixing that?
Not everything is negative, though :-) I just went through all
configured jobs so that they now point at the Git repository rather than
the old Subversion one. Also, they've been cleaned up a bit, which
means that adding new jobs for the 5.3 branch will be easy (clone and
edit one or two parameters). I plan to do that soon. Also, I plan to
switch some of the Debian-related jobs to Debian 8 (which is currently
in testing).
Any thoughts?
Roland.
