[Openmcl-devel] Problems rebuilding anything later than the r7939 revision

Sun Feb 3 18:27:58 PST 2008

There are a couple of tarballs in ftp://clozure.com/pub/testing that

a) include SVN (rather than CVS) metainformation
b) reflect work done on a "working-0711" branch for a customer.
c) were only built for one platform (linux-x8664)

At some point (probably soon after 071213 ...), I realized that
the customer had an older version of SVN installed at their
site; that older version of SVN couldn't use the metainformation
from the tarballs I was building, so I started distributing 
binaries to them via other means.

It didn't occur to me that other people would download them
and try to track changes in that branch, though it probably
should have.  Meanwhile, the changes in that branch have 
been merged with other changes and should appear in the next
release (which should be ready for external testing Real Soon Now.)

There's nothing secret or proprietary about anything in the
working-0711 branch; I didn't keep public tarballs for that branch
up-to-date because I didn't have time (and didn't realize that
anyone was downloading them and getting stuck whenever Everything
Changed.)  It's not -that- much time (5-10 minutes), but in the
same time those tarballs could be removed or accompanied by a
"readme" file that says "you probably don't want these".
