I regularly build ekiga snapshots, for debian, amd64.  I put them on 
http://eugen.dedu.free.fr/ekiga.  Each night, a script on ekiga.net 
downloads them and generates Packages, Release and related files and put 
all of them available on ekiga.net, cf. 
http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/Snapshots.

The problem is that Packages file generated for some reason contains 
only _all files, not _amd64 files.  Moreover, if my files are more than 
one week ond, they are not generated anymore, which is bad.

I attach an old e-mail about this.

Hi,

As you can see on the mailing list, Michael Cronenworth could create
ekiga weekly snapshots for windows.  He needs to store them in another
place.  So I propose that it stores its .exe on his site, and get it in
the same manner as for debian.

Do you feel there is a security problem (he can put what he wants,
viruses :o), in his .exe)?

What do you think?

Cheers,

Jan does not replay.  What should we do, Damien?  Who can do that?  Yannick?

Only Jan and myself. Let's wait for Jan to have more time. Let's trust
him for viruses.

I'm sorry I can't help, but I have 0 minutes spare time left during my
office day :(

Sorry, my time is very limited at the moment, too.

Can somebody give me a summary about what to do or what to discuss?

Yes!  Thanks!

I propose:
- have all the snapshots stored on snapshots.ekiga.net Web site

- people creating snapshots (me for debian, Michael for windows etc.) store their snapshots on a web site, one for each person; for the moment, we remove the file signing (in fact, it has never been used) - s.ek.net, each night, scans the web site of each person; if there is no new file, do nothing; if there are new file(s), move current snapshots into archive directory, download all the new files, and do the necessary processing (for ex., for debian creating Release, Packages files etc.)

For debian, it is already done, but it would be better to modify the 10-days period (remove files older than 10 days) with what I said: each time a new version is found, move current version to archive and download the new one.

Agreed? Is it too complicated? Do you prefer something simpler? Do you prefer that I detail further?

Cheers,
