But the server were really on its knees and everything else in it (including all our source repositories) were just not working at all. It was a hard decision, but one that had to be made, and soon.> Regardless, thanks for having run this infrastructure for so long. Have you considered publishing the packages to a PPA, so that the community can continue to benefit from them without llvm.org having to support the hosting costs?John, I'm not well versed with PPAs, but if you have an alternative that we could do and fix the package problem without reusing the same server, I think we should pursue it. cheers, --renato

I've had a better experience with the OpenSUSE build service [1] which despite its name lets you build for Ubuntu, Debian, OpenSUSE, Redhat, Fedora, CentOS and Arch Linux. You have to provide the packaging files for each packaging system though. It also supports more architectures than just x86_64. [1] https://build.opensuse.org/

It seems that the people relying on our apt service wouldn't bother much where we move it to. So, I'm ok with any solution that replaces the functionality.> [1] https://build.opensuse.org/This also sounds interesting... I remember being impressed with OpenSUSE's validation infrastructure in the past. Would you be able to cook up some example, so that the rest of the people that rely on it can check if it works for them, too? cheers, --renato
