Hi Mike,
we do have such a thing and in principle this is possible. None the
less, if I remember right, Reinhard has a something similar in
preparation for another project. @Reinhard: Any news? I also think
that compile-time shouldn't be an issue - worst case the package is
published an hour later. If you've got a system up and running we
should probably use that. Anyway the next two or three weeks are
very busy for me, therefore I'd like to avoid doing this unless it
is absolutely necessary until then.
Cheers.
Morty

Hi Morty, Reinhard, Arw,
Morty mentioned recently (I think in a Jabber session) that there
is a build-server available at Uni Erlangen. Will it be possible
to install qemubuilder on that system and use it for building X2go
packages? I volunteer to do that, the qemubuilder can be used for
other build jobs as well...
I have looked at the different systems available for package
building and I liked qemubuilder best. However, qemubuilder does
only build in kvm-mode on native systems (that is: not on already
virtualized systems). In Intel-based kvm-VMs it can not access the
VT technology of the CPU (so-called VT nesting).
However, AMD Pacifica CPUs support KVM nesting (never tried it
out, though). @Morty: if you run VMs on an AMD CPU that would also
be great and functional for our needs.
Anyone else: if you can provide such a build server, please let me
know that, too. I currently use my notebook for building X2go
packages (it is a really fast one, but still, it is a notebook).
The server behind code.x2go.org also runs a similar qemubuilder
setup, but it only falls back to slow qemu software emulation as
it already as a virtual machine...
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks a lot Mike
