[Ubuntu] GRASS7.0 weekly build

[Alan Boudreault]

Rashad,

You should get an email saying REJECTED or ACCEPTED a few minutes after 
your uploads. If not, something goes wrong or check your dput config.

It might take from 15 minutes to several hours. Everything depends on 
the launchpad workers load. You can always check when your build will 
start using the web interface.

I usually try to follow debian unstable. Going too fast might break a 
lot of user's systems. I don't know if grass 7.0 has been highly tested 
by someone in ubuntugis, I mean not only grass itself... but with all 
other packages that use it. qgis, gdal etc. Since debian unstable is 
still 6.4.2, I'm not too hurry to push the new version. I'm not sure 
about the grass 6.5 branch package. UbuntuGIS has been created to old 
only one version of the packages.... not all flavors. The source package 
are not made for that and will conflict each other. Not sure what you 
want to provide... but maybe it would be better to create (if it not 
already exists) an official grass launchpad account... with several 
grass ppa for each version. So people could try all your versions 
easily. You could talk with grass developers.

The only thing you'll need to change is the version number of you weekly 
package. It always need to be incremented.

Regards,
Alan
