The #Debian Janitor now automatically produces updated packages with the latest upstream Git commit for about 8k out of the 30k packages in the archive. Instructions on how to add the apt repo and which packages are included at https://janitor.debian.net/fresh / https://jelmer.uk/fresh-builds.html

Week 2 of the home kubernetes cluster and I am slowly paging back in everything I once knew about iptables.

I've published a new spin-off project from the #debian-janitor: #ognibuild aims to provide a basic interface to any buildsystem, including dependency discovery and resolution. https://www.jelmer.uk/ognibuild.html

I like the idea of #lime bikes, but usually the first two or three I try say they're in maintenance once I get to them, or the barcode has een scraped off. Am I unlucky or are #lime just terrible?

This week I published the upstream ontologist, a project that gathers metadata from FOSS projects across a wide variety of ecosystems. https://www.jelmer.uk/upstream-ontologist.html

I've published a new tool for #Debian package maintainers that automatically updates your Build-Depends based on package build failures. https://www.jelmer.uk/deb-fix-build.html

The streets of London are very quiet during the evenings of the lockdown.

Every time I have to prepare a backport for @debian, it takes me several attempts to get all the flags right (with the right orig tarball, changes from the last upload, ...) before I finally manage to do an upload...
