bob v0.7.0



Thanks again to those who have been testing these pre-releases and providing feedback. I've just released 0.7.0 with another large set of changes:

  https://github.com/jperkin/bob/blob/main/CHANGES.md#version-070-2026-01-30

As requested, this version now supports macOS sandboxes out of the box. You will need to install MacFUSE and bindfs, and in testing these sandboxes are much more reliable than my current pbulk-based ones. I will be switching my production builds over to bob shortly.

I'm pretty much done with support for basic builds now, and I'm confident that after a small amount of editing of the default config file, upgrading your local pkgsrc packages will be as trivial as:

  $ bob build && pkgin upgrade

with full support for concurrent sandboxed builds that are completely isolated from your existing install.

I am going to turn my attention to items required for full bulk builds, such as reports and package uploads. As always please let me know if there are any features you would like to see.

Happy building,
