I had similar problems with mpv before (some years ago), caused by the soundsystem (pulse or pipewire) not letting mpv stream its audio, filling the buffer until it just stops (which can happen…
I'm using mpv daily, no problems here. I would suggest checking your audio setup and starting mpv via terminal to see whats going wrong.
There is no technical reason to not build testing, but I see no practical reason to build it. testing, as the name suggests, provides a opportunity to tests if package X works as expected and…
Not all packages (that need version constraints) have version constrains. You can't assume all packagers/maintainers are gonna add them, they are optional after all. Its better to make sure we have…
nodejs needs to be on the LTO list, indeed.
The builder does not wait for our own builds, since it always builds with vanilla packages. ALHP is truly waiting for nodejs-17.1.0-1, because it is…
Difficult to answer, since it really depends on many factors. I have no dedicated stats for ALHP, but considering the whole server traffic usage I would imagine <500GB/month.
But, like I said, it…
If I wanted to setup something like this (a mirror) would there be a way to limit the amount of traffic I get? (without throwing annoying errors at users)?
You can always rate-limit your…
Could this also be done automatically by comparing whether the package contents are the same as in upstream package?
If I remember correctly the reproducible builds check does something similar…
It'll be build if I requeue it or a new version appears. I may requeue it later.
At the moment the Alhp server is the build server and repo at the same time.
My thoughts is, the current Alhp server, just become the build server, then the repos mirror would retrieve the…
I would suggest removing the really big ones (cuda for example). Removing all might be a very time consuming task, especially if you remember this list is subject to change based on upstream arch…
If more people start mirroring this. Maybe you can setup a
ahlp-mirrorlistpackage just like thechaoticaurunofficial repo with theirchaoticaur-mirrorlistpackage. Just a thought 👍…
'Distributed' building like that brings some challenges:
- signing
- coordinating (if multiple 'buildserver' exist)
- distribution (how to get build packages were they need to be)
All technical…
