Hi all,
This is to ask whether I can help with tagging. But if we want to be several
persons to do that, we should allocate packages to each one.
What I can do easily is packages in the "programming" and "file systems"
sections. I guess that I am behind for X Window.
I could do KDE, too but I have a question about new versions of some packages,
which should be updated according to tickets 5917 and 5955.
There is also 6143, which I think should be closed, now that we have discussed
with Ken. But all three tickets are assigned to Bruce, so I do not know where
I could help there.
Any editor can tag any package as they build and test for release. I personally
plan on building virtually everything in the book.
My approach this time is slightly different. I started with critical packages I
need and built in chroot: openssl, openssh, and sudo are the primary ones.
After I got the system up with those, I work mostly via ssh from a complete
desktop.
I started by going through the book pretty much linearly and building packages
that had no dependencies. I've gotten through Chapter 12 with a few packages in
other places. I also did enough to get subversion working and to be able to
render the book.
Today I will start with Xorg and I plan on doing the open tickets for KDE. On
my current HW, I will need to add some speakers to test sound. I'm not sure
about bluez right now. I do have a USB BT device I can try. Otherwise I'll
copy everything to a new partition on my laptop and use that to test bluez, but
it will probably be a few days before I can get to that.
If you want to test LDXE and/or XFCE, that would be nice.
