Hi those eagerly awaiting,
Re-read Eitan's post of Sun, 9 Dec 2012 09:04:25 -0500 (15:04 CET)
Those with knowledge, time & enthusiasm can already build
their own 9.1-RELEASE from released public sources. No longer need to wait.
As I wrote 3 local friends Fri, 07 Dec 2012 08:37:20 +0100
] In case you'r waiting to upgrade any production servers to latest release:
] {
] Although FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE has not been announced yet, it's available:
] in (ctm distributed) CVS tree (I admit I havent converted to use svn yet)
] grep RELENG_9_1_0_RELEASE /pub/FreeBSD/development/FreeBSD-CVS/src/Makefile,v
] I am exporting with
] cvs -R export -r RELENG_9_1_0_RELEASE src # du=867 M tgz=149 M
] ports & doc have not been tagged yet, they will later be:
] cvs -R export -r RELEASE_9_1_0 ports # du=... M tgz=... M
] cvs -R export -r RELEASE_9_1_0 doc
]
] The .iso images are not in ftp.freebsd.org or eg ftp2.de.freebsd.org yet,
] (& I havent bothered to look for packages as I dont use them, I always
] compile my own ports)
] I assume the delay to announce release is 'cos they're still recovering
] from their security intrusion & still rebuilding packages after
] http://www.freebsd.org/news/2012-compromise.html
]
] freebsd.org also have sigbus issues with cvsup (affecting send-pr),
] may also be slowing build cluster
] http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2012-December/041352.html
Clue to a quick check with CVS is/was
grep RELENG_9_1_0_RELEASE /usr/cvs/src/Makefile,v
grep RELEASE_9_1_0 /usr/cvs/ports/Makefile,v
but as CVS is about to disappear, what's a quick check for svn ?
Compliments to re@ team who have doubtless been working very hard,
probably on a problematic cluster base. Hopefully there'll be less
"When ?" questions that might distract re@, now people realise it's
tagged & you can build yourself if you're in a rush.
ports/ is also tagged & available:
From: Thomas Abthorpe <portmgr-secretary@freebsd.org>
Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2012 19:59:09 +0000
To: ports@freebsd.org
(though no tag for that yet in preceeding cvs-cur 19073 )
Those who want this lot must wait till announcement (a few days I guess)
binaries compiled at freebsd.org
+ for all architectures,
+ packages build on freebsd.org cluster
+ docs
+ iso's built
+ all ftp'd from master server to mirror servers globaly
+ Release Notes written by re@ team who are doubtless
tired, & working flat out ;-)
+ all of that work to be done on a freebsd cluster that was
compromised & needed to be checked before the relase rolled,
Cheers,
Julian
