Info

Joyride is the stream where bleeding edge development happens. Components from joyride are later pulled into stable branches for release.

For information about the software used to build the stream, see Build system.

Getting packages included

Packages with OLPC-3 disttags

If the package in question has an OLPC-3 branch, simply building under that branch will result in joyride inclusion. Just run "make build" from the OLPC-3 directory.

Packages without OLPC-3 disttags

Kernel

Joyride currently uses the "testing" branch of the olpc-2.6 kernel git repository. RPMs of this kernel are built nightly and published at http://dev.laptop.org/~dilinger/testing/

Once a new RPM has been published, Dennis Gilmore does something and the kernel magically appears in the next build.
