Hello again guys,
Just a couple of notes from me (sorry to pester you like this):
* The slow git access is due to very high congestion at my suburban node
according to my ISP who I hassled this morning. Nothing much to be done
about this, so I'll just bite the bullet until they upgrade the node.
* A couple of very small "bug" repots:
1.
https://tails.boum.org/contribute/build/#index2h1 the config line
LD_PARENT_MIRROR_BINARY has an extra quote mark that causes error if you
copy/paste it.
2. Same link says "ikiwiki 3.20120725 or newer." but actually you can't get
this version of ikiwiki from squeeze backports, it only has version
3.20120629, which according to
https://mailman.boum.org/pipermail/tails-dev/2012-June/001331.html is fine?
Please confirm this one.
3. For the life of me I could not get the squeeze backports repo to work in
my sources.list (using the example here
http://backports.debian.org/) so I
ended up having to download the deb for libmarkdown2,
libtext-markdown-discount-perl and ikiwiki and install using dpkg manually.
Otherwise all is well and I am in the middle of my first "lb build" to see
what happens.
So far the experience has made me realise I am not as proficient in git
usage as I should be, so I might attempt to contribute to some of the
"Easy" tickets before attempting to develop any feature branches in devel
(which was my original plan).
