We need to setup some 3.1.0 milestone tasks. What would we like to add to this release or take away or improve?
Outside of upgrading some packages which we normally do, we’ll have some toolchain upgrades which will bring some command changes elsewhere in the book. There is GLIBC 2.20, GCC 4.9 and probably a binutils upgrade sometime. Latest Systemd version adds more user/groups required from the system and adds more daemons and may remove one or two or so, I haven’t looked at the Changelogs. Sysvinit book is probably straight forward with upgrades. Some of these are already as tickets but we have these to look at: GCC GLIBC BINUTILS CHECK Coreutils Dbus Dhcpcd E2fsProgs Eudev File Gettext Grep Iproute2 (for when we move to the 3.16 kernel) Linux 3.16 KBD LIbpipeline Make Man-Pages Perl Procps-NG Systemd (216 is latest) Tar TCL TZData Util-Linux XZ Parted Grub which I think is at 2.02 beta2 I’d like to add books for ARM targets. Community help with creating a table with options required for the toolchain such as float, vfp, target-triplets and any other options would be helpful. I don’t know if we’ll get the simplify branch integrated into our books. It’s a fight of making the xml readable or making editing easier. If we add ARM books, it’ll be using the x86 common xml outside of different commands for installing the kernel headers and different gcc configure options and a table with variables to use through out the build for specific ARM options needed during gcc configure. Otherwise, the ARM books will be using most of the same page content as the x86 books. Just nothing arch specific from x86. Is there any input with what others think would be good to add, improve, or remove with some detailed explanation as to the purpose?
