Introduce a manually-triggered GitHub Actions workflow that builds portable tar.gz packages for Apache cloudberry-backup from its official source release tarball, and tests them against Apache Cloudberry built from its own official source release.

Key design decisions:

  • cloudberry-backup binaries are built on Rocky 8 (glibc 2.28) to maximise compatibility across Linux distributions.
  • Cloudberry is built per-platform from its source release tarball (~8 min), avoiding dependence on pre-built Docker images or external DEB/RPM repositories.
  • Build-and-test are fused into one job per platform: after Cloudberry compiles, gpdemo spins up directly in the same container, eliminating artifact packaging, transfer, and a separate test job.
  • Only .sha512 checksums are generated; .asc signatures remain a release manager local step.

You can see this action: https://github.com/tuhaihe/gpbackup/actions/runs/29551662660

Note:

  • This is a case using the official release tarball of cloudberry-backup and cloudberry 2.1.0.
  • Rocky 10 and Ubuntu 24.04 were not supported by Cloudberry 2.1, so these two cases failed.
  • You can download the packages-linux-amd64 and packages-linux-arm64 after running this workflow to verify them.
