Hi, there is no set date, but I want to post a GLEP 42 news item before the actual stabilisation. Maybe other channels like the web page can carry that news then, too. Please comment the attached news item. Vapier wanted to know, if it is possible that the news item is displayed user has (a) Baselayout 1 installed while (b) Baselayout is stable. From what I know there is no such conditional for a news item, but I may be wrong.

Title: Baselayout update Author: Christian Faulhammer <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain Posted: 2009-05-xx Revision: 1 News-Item-Format: 1.0 Display-If-Installed: <sys-apps/baselayout-2 Baselayout provides a basic set of files that are necessary for all systems to function properly. Currently you have version 1.x installed which is written entirely in the Bash script language, which has many drawbacks (like speed and flexibility) and will be replaced soon by a rewritten implementation in C. A lot has changed from Baselayout version 1.x to 2.0.0, so all users should take a look at the upgrade guide found at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/openrc-migration.xml to not break their systems. You will likely see an update of sys-apps/baselayout in the near future: After installing, please follow the upgrade guide and do not reboot your system meanwhile.
