Description Joshua Lock - Disabled 2011-08-02 15:08:58 UTC 
As discussed in bug 1263, comment 4
Comment 1 Joshua Lock - Disabled 2011-08-02 15:10:12 UTC 
Things we would like to be able to do but which rely on data generated during a build:
* predict the size of the resultant image
* more accurately reflect image contents, per bug 1263
Comment 2 Richard Purdie 2011-10-04 06:51:10 UTC 
Collect data at build time to allow hob to: predict the size of the generated image, more accurately reflect the built image contents, etc. This will likely involve generating data on the autobuilder which the UI can fetch and consume (with local caching for offline usage). This could make use of the existing buildstats data collection and/or may also hook into the package history code where it could also obtain package size information.
Comment 3 Joshua Lock - Disabled 2011-10-18 10:17:58 UTC 
We'll likely build hob UI around the general infrastructure developed in bug 1565
Comment 4 Jessica 2011-10-19 14:46:15 UTC 
no longer applicable, see the last comments
Comment 5 Joshua Lock - Disabled 2012-04-17 23:40:29 UTC 
Hobv2 achieves this another way
