I want to propose moving the build of 10.x release sources off osx onto linux with the rest of the release lines.

This will allow us to migrate off of our old macstadium vsphere (#2315) as this is our only dependency upon osx 10.10.

Im not 100% sure if this is possible to test before merging.

Probably not without cloning the job in the release-ci to change where it picks up the script from.

Yeah I didnt think so, theres no release scheduled for a couple weeks from what I can see in the release repo so merging and running a couple test release-ci jobs to verify should be good enough

If you want to test this, you can edit iojs+release to point to this branch's VersionSelectorScript and run a test build (pls use proper date and commit for that). Remember to set it back to master once you're done though.

ive ran a sample build before changes for comparison: https://ci-release.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/6102/

build with changes: https://ci-release.nodejs.org/job/iojs+release/6103/

Both builds pass and the outputs look the same.

Ive revert the job back to using master's versionselectorscript

I had a quick look and I don't think we're stating anywhere how the tarballs are built, so we're not officially tied to their format. There will be a difference in the tarball format but it should be an improvement in compatibility rather than introducing potential incompatibilities. But you never know what's going on out there in the wild, there's always surprises when we change the most minor things! 🤞 thanks for this @AshCripps
