Edgy is now officially at end-of-life.
Looking back through my build logs, I can see that my desktop spent 55 hours, 14 minutes, and 3 seconds on 406 builds related to edgy-security updates I was involved in publishing. These times obviously don’t include patch hunting/development, failed builds, testing, stuff done on my laptop or the porting machines, etc. Comparing to my prior post on this topic, here are the standings for other releases:
dapper: 44:48:24
feisty: 58:49:04
gutsy: 37:06:08
hardy: 86:25:58
Hmm… I think my hardy numbers include devel builds times… I’ll have to sort that out. :)
Thank you Edgy! I will remember you for your wonderful default -fstack-protector.
