Hi all. I've working on some things regarding the blacklist, and I've encountered a few problems, thought on solutions, and wanted to discuss some topics, so I will summarize everything in this mail.
1) Autobuilder Something strange happens to it. I just pushed some changes to the blacklists, and now your-privacy and your-freedom_emu have the same conflicts=() as your-freedom and the PKGBUILDs pushed to the abslibre by the autobuilder have incorrect checksums, except your-freedom. lukeshu, could you look at this? 2) New script to get deprecated packages I created this script https://git.parabola.nu/blacklist.git/tree/find-deprecated-pkgs So anyone can get deprecated packages that are still in our blacklists (read the script for more info) and remove them. I used it for commit https://git.parabola.nu/blacklist.git/commit/?id=c914523aa7fb48abea19f391bf5ebf3a2486fb69 and works well 3) Uboot packages We block Arch ARM's uboot packages https://git.parabola.nu/blacklist.git/tree/blacklist.txt#n701 However, is it necessary? I mean, they are in the [alarm] which is a particular repo from Arch ARM that we don't sync. Plus, some packages like vboot-utils, which are at [alarm], not in the blacklist and in [libre]. So then why uboot? In summary (regarding this point), we should not blacklist [alarm] packages if we don't sync it. However, I think we can consider syncing it, because there are some useful packages there, like fake-hwclock, vboot-utils (which is ultra outdated in [libre]), some xf86-video drivers, etc. If we don't, the second option would be to, in some way, move the useful packages to [libre] (maybe using a whitelist instead of a blacklist is a better idea in this case). And in the last case, which is probably what we do now, manually build those packages ourselves and upload them to [libre]. -- ~Megver83 SIP: [email protected] XMPP: [email protected] Tox: [email protected] GPG: 0x227CA7C556B2BA78 GNUSocial: @[email protected] Diaspora*: [email protected] Matrix: @Megver83:matrix.org
