Running "make distcheck" ensures that we have CLEANFILES and uninstall
rules setup correctly, as well as validating VPATH builds succeeed.

So we need something else. My first idea was to have something like matrix: include: - compiler: gcc dist: precise env: - OS=precise - compiler: gcc dist: trusty env: - OS=trusty - compiler: clang dist: precise env: - OS=precise - compiler: clang dist: trusty env: - OS=trusty - compiler: clang os: osx env: - OS=macos script: - make -j3 && if [ "$OS" != "macos" ]; then make -j3 syntax-check && make -j3 check; fi && if [ "$OS" = "trusty" ]; then make -j3 distcheck; fi with the new env variable being introduced because, for whatever reason, Travis defines $TRAVIS_OS_NAME for telling Linux and macOS apart but no equivalent for telling precise and trusty apart :/ However, I've later realized that precise has already been EOL'd for almost a year and is already in the process of being (slowly) decommissioned on Travis too. So I say just rip out the damn obsolete thing already and move on with our lives :) -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list

So we need something else. Yes, that's intentional and not a problem IMHO. 'check' is run as part of 'distcheck' so that's a non-issue. Running syntax-check in all 5 scenarios isn't buying us anything, as the syntax-check rules don't depend on what is installed in the host. IOW, running syntax-check in 1 scenario is sufficient to get us the coverage we need.

The change still "obfuscates" the Travis configuration though, because now you can't just look at a single script entry but you have to explode the matrix in your head and convince yourself you're covering all bases, so I'm not too happy with it. Moreover, there was a whole thing about just dropping support for precise (as Canonical already did) and making our lives easier later in the mail, but you snipped it without replying... -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list

Opps, I'm not in favour of dropping precise, because I think it is useful to get coverage on older distros. Travis is what I use for testing complex patch series before submission, so I like it to have a useful mix of vintage OSs, not only the very latest that is largely the same as what I build on locally already.

Support for precise is going to be dropped by Travis in two months either way: https://blog.travis-ci.com/2017-08-31-trusty-as-default-status So we can keep it around for the time being if you want, but we're going to have this very same conversation again pretty soon :) -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list

So we should drop it now really Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :| -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
