Hi, Here is a status update for the coming xulrunner 1.9 transition.
Bugs have been files to follow necessary updates on the reverse dependencies. The list can be seen with the following url: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=xulrunner-transition;[EMAIL PROTECTED] You'll note 10 packages have already been prepared, 2 are waiting in NEW, and 6 have patches, which leaves 17 packages remaining. gcj-4.2 and gcj-4.3 will obviously wait for the current packages in unstable to migrate to testing before being prepared to the future transition. I plan to NMU classpath, vlc, mozilla-traybiff and pcmanx-gtk2, probably tonight. I've now been preparing an upload for xulrunner 1.9rc1 to experimental, which should happen tonight, too. Some reverse dependencies currently in experimental, most notably epiphany, will need rebuilding. I don't know if binNMUs can be triggered for experimental ? With 17 packages left to be prepared, I realistically can't updload xulrunner 1.9 in unstable by sunday, as initially planned. Also, Matthias Klose invited to wait for gcj-4.2 and gcj-4.3 to migrate to testing, which, according to buildd logs and excuses, should just happen soon enough to not be a problem. What does the release team think of the following new timeline: Today NMU packages with patches. Upload xulrunner 1.9~rc1-1 to experimental Now-May 27 Prepare 8 of the remaining 17 packages (leaving 7 + openvrml and gtk2hs, which are not in testing) May 27 Upload xulrunner 1.9~rc1-2 to unstable Trigger binNMUs for mediatomb, libjavascript-perl, gxine, edbrowse, freej and bfilter. Upload the 8 updated packages + gcj-4.2 and gcj-4.3, as NMU or MU. Bump severity for remaining bugs to serious. May 27- Fix the remaining 7 packages. If you have preferences for the list of 8 packages to go first, feel free to tell me. Cheers Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
