I guess using the appliance [1] and automatically ssh ing to perform
the commands
is a best of all worlds. it allows booth to let the build server do
it's work on a maemo
build server and let a user debug when things go wrong and saves a lot
of trouble
downloading the packages every time. what do you think?
