It's that time again! The 2.4 release is coming out on May 18.
I don't think we need too long a feature freeze this month, but if we
could avoid large destabilizing changes between now and the release I
would much appreciate it. I would really like to see three things
focused on in the next week for the release:
And as always I'd like people to test Rakudo on latest parrot, and weed
out regressions and instabilities.
For maybe two weeks now Rakudo spectests randomly segfault on new parrot
revisions, I've now created tt#1613 for that.
There's also a fairly new regression (introduced in the last 24h, I
think), documented in TT#1612. My last spectest run showed 8 files
exiting with status code 1 or 11.
Another problem I forgot to mention: pbc_to_exe consumes excessive
amounts of memory on 64bit linux; more than 1GB for building rakudo.
This means it would be a very bad idea to ship rakudo for current parrot.
I apologize, this was already fixed by bacek++, and I didn't notice the fix.
Rakudo now builds fine in a ulimit of 0.75 GB of virtual memory (even
with make -j3, since the memory heavy processes mostly don't overlap).
Cheers,
Moritz
