Buildfarm client version 4.3 released

Buildfarm client version 4.3 has been released. It can be downloaded
from <http://pgfoundry.org/frs/?group_id=1000040>

Changes:

*

Add setnotes.pl, allowing users to set a note on their animals.

*

Support buildfarm client maintained git mirror, original suggestion from Rémi Zara.

*

Send id of current git head to server, suggestion from David Fetter.

*

Move to tag based script versioning scheme not so dependent on CVS.

*

Send frozen copy of config to server.

I want to move to the new versioning scheme exclusively on the server
very shortly, so buildfarm owners are urged to upgrade to this release ASAP.

cheers

A small bug was in this release, so it has been withdrawn, and replaced
with a new release 4.4.

Upgraded bobcat to 4.4. No catastrophes so far :)

Cheers,
David.

I just upgraded to build-farm-4.4 on mongoose, and got the following
error:

Can't store REGEXP items at blib/lib/Storable.pm (autosplit into
blib/lib/auto/Storable/_freeze.al) line 339, at
/data/local/jeremyd/postgres/build-farm-4.4/run_web_txn.pl line 75
(Log::Agent could not fix it)
Web txn failed with status: 255

I am reverting to my previously working version (4.1) for now...

Ouch. That's a sad regression in perl 5.12. Can you try with the
following patch, which I think will fix it?

thanks

This seems to have done the trick. I applied the patch this morning and
updated my cron tasks to use the 4.4 client again, and several builds have
run successfully today.
