 Hi there

 We will have our meeting tonight focused on release critical bugs review.
 Please have a look before on
 https://bugs.mageia.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=runnamednamedcmd=release_blocker

I am wondering how to handle packages failing to build, especially the
ones with different version in svn
Should I open individual bugs?

I am planning to try building failing packages with -j4 instead of
-j12 to get a list of the ones which are really broken but I don't
know how to handle the discussion on which ones to drop and which ones
really need to be fixed

$ ls /distrib/bootstrap/distrib/cauldron/SRPMS/core/release/ | sed -n
's/.*mga\([0-9]\).src.rpm/\1/p' | sort | uniq -c
 34 1
119 2
  10869 3

(for those not familiar with sed, this means 34 packages still have a
mga1 tag which mean they haven't been rebuilt since Mageia 1 was
released and 119 have not been rebuilt since Mageia 2 was released)

Can't we have some macro for that in the build system. %make_j4 ? So
we could fix them and switch the build system's %make to -j12 by
default in the future?

I'm not sure it's useful to have a %make_j4 macro. It's already possible
to do make -j4 without using a macro.

And they should rather get fixed as it's only by chance if they work
with -j4 now, any change in the Makefile may make them only work with
-j3 or -j5...
