I have just released version 1.3.2 of the `ros_buildfarm` package. I want to highlight a few items from the [changelog](https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/ros_buildfarm/blob/master/CHANGELOG.rst):
- update to latest versions of Jenkins plugins (e.g. Groovy 2.0)
- fix using latest Ubuntu Docker images which don’t have `locales` installed anymore
- improve reconfigure jobs performance
Happy Building!

Can you tell me if [GitHub - ros-infrastructure/buildfarm\_deployment](https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/buildfarm_deployment) still should be able to setup master/slave. Or do you have some insights on the current relationship /buildfarm\_deployment ↔ /ros\_buildfarm.
Greetings!

While that repository is used to provision the buildfarm machine it hasn’t been actively used for a long time. Initially we have provisioned the official buildfarm with those scripts but since then we have only updated it but never used the code to provision a new buildfarm from scratch.
Currently there is some work in progress to update the deployment code to use Xenial (rather than Trusty): [Refactor for deploying a Xenial buildfarm. by nuclearsandwich · Pull Request #146 · ros-infrastructure/buildfarm\_deployment · GitHub](https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/buildfarm_deployment/pull/146) The PR is in progress though and I don’t think it is ready to be used as-is at the moment (but hopefully soon).

There are some (minor) issues with the deployment scripts and puppet files that make them not work oob, but those can be addressed / worked around. I have a fork that at least works for me. You can take a look at it and see if there’s something there you could use.
The work by Steven to migrate everything to Xenial is shaping up nicely. He’s done a good job of cleaning up the puppet files adding proper modules and refactoring.

OK thanks I will have a look at it soon. I noticed the workarounds one has to do to get it working but was wondering if I somehow managed to cause them by myself or if it was in inherent problem. Thanks for the quick answers!
