Title:
Prepare mirror tarball for 3rd party dependencies
Status in Linaro Android Build System Frontend:
Triaged
Bug description:
This is offshot of WI "Improve frontend installation (external
dependencies)" of https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-
android/+spec/linaro-android-buildd-deployment
Install script pulls a bunch of 3rd party components from the net.
Non-availability of any of them means installation failure. We sure
insure against prolonged non-availability. Within scope of BP above it
was discussed what approach is good, and we seem to agree that good
way is to prepare tarball of all 3rd party dependencies and put
somewhere. Then, provide wrappers for common net access tools like
wget, which will try to use upstream servers, and if fail, then take
component from mirror tarball.
This is not high-priority, as we use official download locs, and for
50+ times I ran deployment script, I never had network failure.
