Patch Set 3: Code-Review+2
All-in-all this seems like a great step forward for build testing. I looked over the patch chain and it seems OK (nice Make-fu), but unfortunately it failed to run and I couldn't figure out why in the short amount of time I had.
Some day I'd like to re-write most of the Makefile logic in Go or shell and hopefully make it easier to understand and modify, but that shouldn't block this patch.
I was able to run this on poweredgy (my Dell Poweredge R900 space heater) some time ago.
I should clarify - I was able to run it, but there were a couple errors such as: make[1]: *** [Makefile:39: fedora:30-aarch64-build] Error 1
I'm just not sure how to determine what's going on and how to fix it. It doesn't seem to be the fault of manibuilder per se, so I think we should get this in, use it, and improve it and add more documentation as we go.
