Double check functioning of integration scripts and possible issues with permissions.
Non blocking:
-
Use RTL/non-latin language in CI → sysadmin#17859 -
Use r10k
for creating CI env, and point to that in the corresponding issue: sysadmin#17854 (closed) -
Consider alternatives for uid/
gid passing around → standardized, but didn't use inheritance.
Deployment
