As long as important/core/system packages don't result in a wide scale breakage on ~arch this approach should be fine; we've been doing fine before, so I don't think that this warrants a change in what we do. Just want to note that you can get an idea from previous outages (or similar events like python-exec / UPower) on how much testing is needed. -- With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : [email protected] GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D
