Control: reassign -1 dpkg Dear all,
Helmut Grohne, Wookey, Matthias Klose, Aron Xu, Guillem Jover and myself have been extensively discussing the current implementation of build profiles during the Bootstrap Sprint in Paris. We discovered that the current proposal for build profiles was insufficiently general and limits future possibilities. In agreement with Helmut and Guillem I hereby reassign this bugreport from tech-ctte to dpkg to continue tracking the blocked bugs. As agreed with Guillem, the changed build profile functionality will be in dpkg soon, a patch for apt is ready and patches for other tools will be prepared as well. But having in mind that it is not long until Jessie is released, that we do not want this issue to cause any friction with Debian teams due to the involvement of the technical committee and because the revised build profile implementation needs further testing, we'd like to wait with build profile support until the Jessie release. We are sorry for any inconvenience that our pushing of the original build profile implementation has caused for the involved parties. cheers, josch -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
