We need to configure vms for building packages (RPMs and DEBs).

Notes from relops weekly meeting

darwin:
- needs basic build env packages (so, XCode)
- install some utility scripts, in such a way that we can grow them as we get smarter

ubuntu, centos:  distro specific tools (mock, mach, pbuilder)
- with admin_users added to the mock group

I got the Debian building stuff set up in bug 914623.  RPM and Darwin are still todo.

This sets up mock, not mach.

It also sets up only two mock environments, puppetagain-centos6-{32,64}, both of which have the usual puppetagain repos in them.  So you'd run mock as

mock -r puppetagain-centos6-64 ...

I'll see how this works when the builder VM is up.

[Dustin J. Mitchell [:dustin] (he/him)]

OK, it's up and running.  I updated https://wiki.mozilla.org/ReleaseEngineering/PuppetAgain/HowTo/Build_RPMs too

[Dustin J. Mitchell [:dustin] (he/him)]

Oh, right, Darwin remains.  That will have to wait until we have the relabs environment set up, most likely.

We have vms for centos and ubuntu and we have hardware we can use (r4-mini for OS X 10.6) for others.
