besides some very few remaining rebuilds on mipsel and sparc, the haskell transition is almost ready, if there were not a release critical bug in haskell-cryptocipher affecting big-endian machines (mips, mipsel, ppc, s390x, s390x, sparc). I have finally come up with a proper fix, which requires patching haskell-cpu and haskell-cryptocipher, and is on its way to experimental to see if it actually works :-) I see two modes of action now: A) In order to not hold up the transition: 1. remove all affected packages (i.e. all reverse dependencies of haskell-cryptocipher on these 6 architectures) in unstable 2. let the transition happen 3. upload the fix to unstable 4. let all these packages build again 5. transition them
IOW, remove the following list? haskell-cryptocipher haskell-clientsession haskell-cprng-aes haskell-tls haskell-tls-extra haskell-authenticate haskell-hledger-web haskell-http-enumerator haskell-yesod-core haskell-yesod haskell-yesod-auth haskell-yesod-form haskell-yesod-json haskell-yesod-persistent haskell-yesod-static (Computed using "dak rm" so might be an over-set)
or B) 1. Upload the fix to unstable now. 2. Wait for all reverse dependencies be built on these six architectures. 3. Do the migration then.
If the fix and other packages are ready, then what will we gain by removing haskell-cryptocipher (and r-deps) from testing? If they are really fixed in sid, I think we can age them to let haskell stack migrate.
But looking at the actual state, there is stuff not ready yet: - haskell-tls doesn't look ready at all (but listed above) - as a consequence, haskell-tls-extra is not ready too (but listed above) - haskell-cprng-aes is not too (but listed above) - haskell-diagrams is not ready - the following packages need to go away from testing first (that shouldn't be an issue though): haskell-happstack-util, haskell-happstack-state, haskell-happstack-ixset, haskell-happstack-data. - probably more… I'll will do a britney test run later to see what is really needed to fix/remove/age.
I’m worried that B would make the large transition happen after the freeze.
We were already worried when the transition started without coordination. Regards, -- Mehdi Dogguy مهدي الدڤي http://dogguy.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected] Archive: http://lists.debian.org/[email protected]
