Once the discussions for these packages are finished and we have a plan for what we will do with them, we can implement it and then ship alpha5. This will give us a very solid foundation to build on for alpha6 and then beta1.
The following packages must be moved to system/ no matter what we do: linux-headers (we ship arches that Alpine do not) llvm4 (Alpine only ship llvm5 now) openssl (arch stuff like linux-headers) The following packages must be moved to system/ due to dependency on `cmd:which`: i3lock libvpx The following packages must be moved to system/ due to Python 2 changes that would break Alpine packages: boost gamin libevent libxml2 libxslt mesa postgresql py-dbus py-mako weechat The following packages must be moved to system/ due to us requiring them to be built with PAM support: consolekit2 openssh polkit sudo The following packages must be moved to system/ if Alpine does not change LibreSSL back to OpenSSL for the provider of libssl and libcrypto: abuild apr-util ca-certificates clamav cryptsetup cups curl cyrus-sasl git heimdal hexchat iputils irssi krb5 libfetch libssh2 libwebsockets links mariadb mosquitto mutt neon rtmpdump ssmtp vde2 We will also move poppler-qt5 to user/; this should have never been added to main/ in our fork. The following packages have test suites that would break on Alpine and will either be moved to system/ or marked !check: attr (Perl 5 issues) kyua (Requires sysctl change) openldap (Requires two hours on PPC) parted (Experimental Python 3 changes to test suite) tzdata (Requires package `sp` which is in Adélie user/ only) zsh (Does not seem to work on Alpine) This large amount of churn is the reason why alpha5 is being delayed so much further than expected. We will be able to move much faster after these issues are sorted. Best, --arw -- A. Wilcox (awilfox) Project Lead, Adélie Linux http://adelielinux.org
