Resending due to mail issue...
We are now in the final phase of finishing the 8.4 release. We are well
ahead of schedule for a Friday release.
What we have left is two tickets, libreoffice and a systemd patch
(applicable to LFS also). Doug will commit those changes as soon as his
ISP fixes his connectivity. There are also three xorg drivers to tag
and Doug tells me he will do those also.
I would like to get everyone to review the books as they use them in
order to pick up little things we can fix before release.
We also may want to review the current 8.5 tickets to see if we want to
promote anything to 8.4.
For BLFS, ticket #11712 IO-Socket-SSL-2.061 (Perl Module) appears to
have fixed the test hang. If we update that, we might also want to
update #11695 Test-Differences-0.65.
We also might want to update bind, mariadb, and NetworkManager since
they all have CVE fixes.
On the LFS side, we might want to update the kernel to 4.20.12, but that
isn't essential. We do say in Chapter 3 "The latest available 4.20.x
kernel version should be used, unless the errata page says otherwise."
Anything else?
