Hi, this sounds great! Are you doing a ./make.sh clean before building new stuff, or are you "just" building the changed parts?
no, this is a fresh build from the start. The system cannot be built in any other way, but for i586 that does not really hurt us too much since the build is running at night and takes only 3-4 hours. ARM is completely different though.

Hi,
I wanted to announce that since a few days we have a nightly build service for IPFire 2 again.
This has been built to solve two things:
- First of all we now always have a fresh build. Please use that
for testing. Just download it and go. And please do not forget to report any bugs you find.
- We will now know if the distribution builds on all architectures.
Many people do not have build hardware for all architectures, but some have devices they can use for testing.
The builds are available here: http://nightly.ipfire.org/
Every night at 3:00 AM CET the build server will check if the next branch has any new changes and if so start a build job. A couple of hours later it will upload the build so that everyone has a fresh one early in the morning. ARM builds will take usually longer than 24 days though.
Builds will automatically be removed after 7 days. The latest build will always be kept.
This is basically just two scripts doing the job. Nothing too exciting, but we think it will be very helpful. If you have any ideas on how to extend this service let me know. Also any other feedback is appreciated.
Best, -Michael
