Subject: CENGN Request: Debian snapshots mirror for Arm
 

Hi Scott, Davlet and the StarlingX community,

 

As you know, I’m working on the Arm enablement, and I need to set the Debian snapshot to the URL form debian.org

since the mirror on CENGN doesn’t support Arm yet, but if I set it with “stx config” like:

 

stx config --add project.debian_snapshot_base http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian

stx config --add project.debian_security_snapshot_base http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-security

 

It will always re-set the options back to the CENGN URLs:

Restarting pods

STX-Config-Parser - WARNING: One or more configuration keeys have been upgraded

STX-Config-Parser - WARNING: These changes will take effect after you restart your builder containers

 

It’s really bothering me and even I can set the env in the builder pod, it’s slow to directly use the debian snapshot,

So, may I request the CENGN mirror to sync-up the Debian snapshot with Arm support now? Thanks!

 

Thanks,

Jackie
