Two loaners may be needed for this, as jya does not only need to run check on tests, but probably to run builds too - so a test and a build slave are needed.

Jya,

From IRC scrollback it seems that a try or m-c build will suit you? our builds in our CI are all done on 10.7, so if you see a 'B' on a try or a m-c/m-i/etc line in TBPL that will be what you need.

These builds are all uploaded to ftp and can be downloaded easily via curl/wget/etc on the test slave.

If you do still need a builder that is *no problem* but I'm asking in the interest of getting what you need and trying to not make it harder on you (as in harder by figuring out how to produce a build *and* run the tests)

Is my comprehension correct?

Hi.

Ideally, I'd like to debug what's going on with proper tools (xcode).
Compiling on one machine and run on another and only going by incomplete backtraces is going to be a major pain.
Especially if I have to wait one hour between the time I start a build, and the time I can finally copy the result to the test machine and run the code.

Installing XCode is rather easy, so if I can do that it will suit me just fine

Now, I don't know if it's crashing on 10.7 too. If it is, then just a build machine (where I can try the build) is enough.

Thanks

I've found a 2010 mac mini running 10.7 home, which I believe is what the machine running the 10.6 try is.

I'm creating a 10.7 VM machine to build the image right now.

Will see how that go.

If it works in 10.7, I'll have to find a 10.6 DVD somewhere...

I managed to find a 10.6 disk and reproduced the issue on a 2010 mini.
