bootstrap: Rename profile = user
to profile = dist
#112074
Comments
Mentoring instructions: I want to do this in a backwards compatible way, so that old config files keep working seamlessly. To do this you'll need to add a way to add aliases to profiles. Take a look around Lines 994 to 1002 in 5e2969e
user the same as dist . Then rename the relevant places around Line 23 in a90e7d4
Please add a test in src/bootstrap/config/tests.rs once you're done. |

"users" is so ambiguous as to be meaningless. What I originally intended was something like "people building from source once and installing it locally", like Gentoo users or something. I think "dist" is a much better name for this profile: it makes it more clear why CI uses the profile and it hopefully will make it easier for distros to find and understand.

install
but I'm not sure that's a good description of what CI is doing with the profile.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
