Description
==Description==
Setting up the builders according to the koji-hub configuration. The builder relys heavily on the koji-hub to be configured before kojid could become functional. Kojid and koji-hub need to communicate with each other, so we use SSL Certifications to authenticate the requests. Each builder needs it's own certificate and needs to be put in the PostgreSQL database. Kojid uses Mock to create a chroot of a minimal installation to test the packages and make sure they install correctly and if the SRPM work it creates all the RPMs. We used one actual ARM machine and nine virtual machines to familiarize the steps involved in getting builders to work with a Koji Hub. The final goal is to make a Koji farm dedicated to building ARM packages for Fedora since the architecture is getting more and more popular everyday. Since there is only one other ARM Koji Farm which doesn't seem to be too current, we hope to create a current and ever going package building environment. Creating this farm will help with the Fedora Project Community development and Seneca to create interest in software building and release.
