While looking at the sphinx package I noticed it was heavily
undermaintained, which is when we noticed nand0p has been inactive for
roughly 18 months. It is therefore prudent to assume they will not be
maintaining their packages, modules and tests.
- Their last contribution to nixpkgs was in 2019/12
- On 2021/05/08 I wrote them an email to the address listed in the
maintainer-list, which they didn't reply to.
Since Buildbot 0.9.0, status targets were deprecated and ignored.
There's a very small line on startup explaining that, and status simply
isn't reported. Avoid others the same headaches, and do it right in the
NixOS module.
As there might have been changes in the way reporters are organized, and
configuration might need to be migrated remove the old option, and not
just provide an alias.
It's pbPort, and it's also a connection string, meaning
listen-on-localhost is also possible. Provide an alias for the old
option name, so old configs still work.
- adds distro dependency
- buildbot nodaemon in service module
- fakerepo for module tests
- service module parameter fixup
- tested on nixos
- tested on darwin
1) The forking behavior of `buildbot start` is temporarily broken for
mysterious reasons that I'm still looking into
2) Let systemd do the forking: no point in using two different process
startup wait loops
The nixbld group belongs to nix-daemon and you really don't want to be
in it. If you are in it, nix-daemon will kill your processes when you
least expect it :)
