If there are no open bugs and no stabilization bug was submitted , then a maximum period (perhaps 60 days, perhaps 6 months) would cause an _automatic_ upgrade to stable.

I feel that the change will be substantial, like the difference between a Google search result and a report from an analyst. My feeling is that the major part of the users is happy with what we have now, that is - the most stable system that can be constructed with ARCH - the most recent possibly usable system with ~ARCH - the most recent system we know about with masked Looking at the list, I feel that the key points on the stable - unstable axis has been marked. Thus, I do not really want to move any of the markers, especially the stable one, since it will be bad for those who need a really stable system. My $0.02 is that there are 3 options: - do nothing, possibly explain the meaning of arch, ~arch, and masked better in the docs. - add a new level of stability, like ^ARCH, and move from ~ARCH to ^ARCH automatically. - encourage development of tools that will make it easier to maintain stable - unstable - deliberately outdated mixture. Such a tool may, among other things, request the list of ~arch packages together with the number of days there are no unresolved bug reports other than version bump and stabilize.

I am reading over the info on distcc so that I might be able to setup an

Opteron does not need the help.
Is that configurable as such?
Thanks
Sean
Well, http://wiki.kraszewscy.net/Cross_DistCC shows how to do it (in Polish,
sorry).
In short:
---8X---[ setup for COMPILER machine (AMD64) ]---
1. make directory /opt/cross32/bin
2. make there a file i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper containing
#!/bin/bash
exec /usr/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g${0:$[-2]} -m32 $@
3. make it executable
4. make soft links in that directory
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper gcc
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper g++
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper c++
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper cc
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper i686-pc-linux-gnu-c++
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper i686-pc-linux-gnu-cc
5. copy /etc/init.d/distccd to /etc/init.d/distccd32
6. fix /etc/init.d/distccd32 to have
TMPDIR=${TMPDIR} \
PATH=/opt/cross32/bin \
/sbin/start-stop-daemon –start –quiet –startas ${DISTCCD_EXEC} \
7. copy /etc/conf.d/distccd to /etc/conf.d/distccd32
8. fix /etc/conf.d/distccd to have
DISTCCD_OPTS=${DISTCCD_OPTS} --port 3664
---8X---[ end of setup for COMPILER machine (AMD64) ]---
Now you have two distccd daemons:
* one at port 3632 for 32-bit distcompiling
* one at port 3664 for 64-bit distcompiling
At this point your Opterons will handle remote 32-bit compiling - you don't
need to make any changes on P4 machine other than activating regular distcc.

[gentoo-user] information about installed files
Hi, I'd like to modify a 'systemrescuecd' to setup my network, i.e. load firmware, etc. For that I need to know which files are installed (where) by a given package, in my case net-dialup/ppp net-misc/br2684ctl net-dialup/speedtouch-usb Gentoo has to keep this information for 'unmerge'.

Okay folks,
here's a little script for assisting wiki updates.
It does not yet fix the database permissions, since I'm not yet
shure how I like to pass the superuser login/passwd.

[gentoo-user] bash_completion
I gave bash_completion a try, and it seemed a Good Thing. Problem is it was behaving like a pig, consuming all cpu ressources (99%) and freezing the computer (temporarily). This has to be a misconfiguration issue. I have both /etc/bash-completion and /etc/conf.d/bash_completion. Is this normal? Both files have a command to source a user completion file. I have a line [[ -f /etc/profile.d/bash-completion ]] source /etc/profile.d/bash-completion at the beginning of ~/.bashrc. Any suggestion? -- Jorge Almeida -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I am reading over the info on distcc so that I might be able to setup an

Opteron does not need the help.
Is that configurable as such?
Thanks
Sean
Well, http://wiki.kraszewscy.net/Cross_DistCC shows how to do it (in Polish,
sorry).
In short:
---8X---[ setup for COMPILER machine (AMD64) ]---
1. make directory /opt/cross32/bin
2. make there a file i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper containing
#!/bin/bash
exec /usr/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g${0:$[-2]} -m32 $@
3. make it executable
4. make soft links in that directory
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper gcc
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper g++
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper c++
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper cc
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper i686-pc-linux-gnu-c++
ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu-wrapper i686-pc-linux-gnu-cc
5. copy /etc/init.d/distccd to /etc/init.d/distccd32
6. fix /etc/init.d/distccd32 to have
TMPDIR=${TMPDIR} \
PATH=/opt/cross32/bin \
/sbin/start-stop-daemon –start –quiet –startas ${DISTCCD_EXEC} \
7. copy /etc/conf.d/distccd to /etc/conf.d/distccd32
8. fix /etc/conf.d/distccd to have
DISTCCD_OPTS=${DISTCCD_OPTS} --port 3664
---8X---[ end of setup for COMPILER machine (AMD64) ]---
Now you have two distccd daemons:
* one at port 3632 for 32-bit distcompiling
* one at port 3664 for 64-bit distcompiling
At this point your Opterons will handle remote 32-bit compiling - you don't
need to make any changes on P4 machine other than activating regular distcc.
Thanks Pawel,
Your steps are obviously a bit different then those listed here.
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/cross-compiling-distcc.xml
So you are stating just emerge crossdev, the run crossdev -t
and from the point where the web page states Here is what you want to
do: (1.2) follow the instructions you listed here, rather then the web
page?
