<CIA-1> svyatogor * gentoo/xml/htdocs/doc/ru/handbook/ (5 files): <CIA-1> handbook indices for x86, AMD64, and SPARC archs. Bug #101063. Commit is done This is from today. At least svyatogor is active. > 2) Who is maintaining ROX and what's going to be done about it. Since svyatogor is active, I would say that he is maintaining it. My "usual" answer to the "when will this be added to the tree" question is "when it is done". Your ebuilds were not ready for inclusion, which means that the maintainer doesn't just need time to drop your ebuilds into an overlay, emerge them, and commit them, but instead has to take time to resolve any issues with them. Sometimes this is as simple as changing a word or adding some quotes. Sometimes this can be rather extensive. Having a 100% correct ebuild, as we have been *trying* to tell you, reduces the work on the maintainer to almost nil. A partially correct ebuild can possibly even increase the amount of work needed, if the ebuild is in especially bad shape. I understand your frustration, just understand that a partially-correct ebuild could possibly not be any more helpful than stating "a new version of $foo is out" when it comes to developer time. Ciaran is only trying to help you write a better ebuild, so that next time you make one, it will be correct and can go into the tree without editing. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead/QA Manager Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
