Thanks Thanks to you for all your work on cleaning our perl setup, bringing 5.10.1 in-tree with almost nothing else than when will it be done? bugzilla comments. That is a big achievement Now who has a free time generator machine so more devs (like me) can help? -- Bernard Cafarelli (Voyageur) Gentoo developer (NX, GNUstep, net-misc, net-ftp, ...)

Regards, Petteri Heh. True. It's a old media player for Xfce4, moved into archive/ in upstream git. Last commit 2008 (translation update only), segfaults with video files (due to new X.org, and by new I mean X.org 7.0 :-). Masked for removal by upstream recommendation. It doesn't, or ever will, work with the new xfce-base/exo API unless someone ports it. That's what you get for maintaining 2 desktops. :-)

Yes I have no idea. That's why I asked on gentoo-dev-announce for maintainers to tell me if they are kept on purpose so the point was made already at the very start. Still, it has already been stated but: please file bugs! A big tracker would probably be messy, one bug / herd or category could be better. You did file some bugs at some point, where I was in the assigned herd and did proceed quickly I think. Why did you stop? Some were just straight removal, some did need some other removal in order to be clean (this may be due to the fact that packages didnt work with latest versions but didn't have restricted deps on the package that would have to be removed). I am not following -dev very carefully and am too lazy to dig in a list posted on -dev-announce to find out if I need to do something or not. A bug makes that easy to track and is the usual way of getting ebuild changes done in the tree. We rant on users who report bugs on -dev, I'm afraid the the same applies to developers :) Also, remark that your script is flawed, I see some freebsd stuff in your list which are certainly the best visible version on some profiles. Again, this will be better tracked in a bug. Alexis. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
