Hi all, Currently, it is nearly impossible to have a pure stable system with Gentoo/AMD64. I think everybody who has ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=amd64 in his make.conf also has a rather large list of packages in /etc/portage/packages.keywords. To adress this issue, we need either a massive improvement in amount of menpower or a list of packages we can to focus on. If you run a stable system and you're interested in helping us from a long-term point of view, you could get in contact with hparker ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), our Arch Testers Lead. If you don't know what Arch Testers aka ATs are, you probably want to read this doc [1] first. However, if you don't want to become an AT, but still want to contribute something to the development, please email me the content of your /etc/portage/package.keywords to [EMAIL PROTECTED] The data will only be used to create a list of packages which are considered more important than others. It will *not* be used for any other type of statistics, the whole procedure will be totally anonymous.
Thanks in advance! [1] http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/tests/index.xml?part=1&chap=1 -- Simon Stelling Gentoo/AMD64 Operational Co-Lead [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
