Hello,
I have something to add to the update/build/koji doc, but it is not easy to do since there are a lot of duplication in the wiki on that subject.
1. In http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Koji, subsection 'Package Organization' there are some useful infos about tags and package lists (not the very beginning, but roughly beginning at 'A build target specifies ...'), but for advanced uses of koji.
2. In http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Koji/UsingKoji there are information about the web interface, setting up koji in the client and koji build commands.
3. in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/KojiBuildSystem there are very brief infos about the web interface, setting up koji in the client, precise informations about the certificates and setup, some commands, and info about make targets koji related.
4. In http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/UpdatingPackageHowTo there is a brief explantation about how to update a package including make tag, make build, koji, and bodhi. There is a link to 5.
5. In http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/UsingCvsFaq there is a detailed explanation on how to update a package. Also some misc informations, including info about make targets. It links to 6.
6. On http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/BuildRequests there are info about plague builds
I think that things should be simplified. In my opinion 1. 2. and 3. should be merged in a page about builds in Fedora. With a part about setting up koji, a part about the web infrastructure, a part about koji commands and a last one regarding the make shortcuts, including some info from 5. Maybe the make shortcuts may be explained before koji commands.
I also think that 5. should be merged in 4., with links from 5. to 4.
4. should point to koji stuff.
6. Should be renamed otherwise, and linked from other places with a text saying that it is about a procedure for F-6 only.
I am volunteering to do at least part of the reorganization I propose.
(The info I would like to add is about inheritance in koji and make chain-build.)
Comments?
