as most people know, the dreaded icu-pocalypse has been a recurring bother for the parabola devs and user alike - gnutoo and eli have cooked up a new plan for an 'icu-parabola' package, to smooth the transition from one version of 'icu' to the next - the main advantage of this is that, in the future, people will no longer be blocked from upgrading, during the transition period - if it works out well, we will do the same for 'poppler' - denis will send an email later to explain more, once the logistics are nailed down
to go along with this, i have completed the task that freemor started on the bug tracker, to make tracking and managing the many rebuilds easier to grok - there are 6 special redmine tickets, with each dependent package as sub-tasks - we will be able to keep those 6 open always; and simply toggle each individual package tickets 'open' and 'fixed' as needed - the "STICKY" tag should make them easy to locate when needed https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2723 [STICKY][poppler]: and friends (armv7h) https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2720 [STICKY][poppler]: and friends (i686) https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2546 [STICKY][poppler]: and friends (x86_64) https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2071 [STICKY][icu] and friends (armv7h) https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2727 [STICKY][icu] and friends (i686) https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/2047 [STICKY][icu] and friends (x86_64) _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.parabola.nu/mailman/listinfo/dev
