i went through bugzilla and fixed/closed out all the svgalib bugs for 1.4.x and 1.9.x (except for #35348 and #37812 ... but these are not really svgalib show stoppers as far as i'm concerned) ...
i then went and looked at all the packages that DEPEND on svgalib, either optionally or required and built them against 1.9.x ... i found only dev-lang/blassic failed to build and it doesnt need svgalib to compile so we can disable that until it's fixed upstream. there were 3 packages i was unable to verify 100% (app-i18n/jmcce, games-emulation/generator, net-im/ohphone) but that was because they hate gcc-3.x ... i made sure the svga parts of them compiled, and they did ;) so, anyone have any last thoughts/issues/etc... before i move svgalib-1.9.17-r3 to stable ? i'm finding that more packages (media/games) need svgalib-1.9.x and dont support the old 1.4.x anymore and it would be nice if i could move them into stable without having to cry over svgalib -mike -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
