hi ironiq (and others) today i've downloaded rc7 - sorry but it sucks
when releasing -current snapshots, the rule is the following: if the version is a date, like 20060402, then i might be untested. when releasing with a name, then it _must_ be tested don't tell me that anyone tested rc7, it has big typos, like syntax errors in xconfig, missing boot parameters (using splash=silent but no vga=foo). if one would even _once_ booted this cd, i'm sure it would not hit the ftp sites i've created a livecd project in the bts, here are the concrete problems: http://bugs.frugalware.org/536 http://bugs.frugalware.org/537 http://bugs.frugalware.org/538 http://bugs.frugalware.org/539 http://bugs.frugalware.org/540 so what i would like to ask is to push a new iso with a name _only if_ you tested it. if it just autogenerated without any testing, then push it with a date - and probably nobody will download it. the normal usage of those isos are: 1) you generate the iso for yourself 2) you know somebody _will_ download it and please remove rc7 from the ftp for now, as it is broken and does not worth downloading udv / greetings, VMiklos -- Developer of Frugalware Linux, to make things frugal - http://frugalware.org _______________________________________________ Frugalware-devel mailing list [email protected] http://frugalware.org/mailman/listinfo/frugalware-devel
