Interesting, I was wondering why lot's of stuff looked a bit abandoned, now I understand better. I am a bit sad about such a great contributor and developer leaving Debian - I am a huge fan of i3wm even if I recently switched to sway - but I also understand his reasons. > The thing is, the runner managed by @stapbelerg is down because he's moving off > Debian [2] and therefore has put the machine to another use. Why not using salsa shared runners and all the work made by the SalsaCI Team? Sorry if this was already responded many times before, there is maybe a very good reason. > I've work on creating Ansibles files [3] (which are now ready to use) > that allows everyone to setup a Go capable runner and register it on > Salsa. Excellent that you used Ansible to automate this process! I already have some comment on this but I guess that I could contribute directly in the repo (mainly on the Docker privilege mode that can be problematic in CI context IMO). I'll setup a VM on my infra and try to follow your setup documentation so I may have more feedback in the next days. > The only thing: while some package took <10sec to be build (which is > what is intended) some of them took >10mins, and that's not > acceptable. > > I'm working on getting this issue fix before making the runner > available for everyone. Yep, having a fast and reactive CI is something worth spending extra time on. Happy to help in debugging this too. More generally, if you need support or help on infrastructure questions, do not hesitate. Cheers! Faustin
