I do not mean that it should block the stabilization of the gentoo-sources-3.8.7 and I won't open a bug blocking it. Up to you to decide if it should actually block it or not : - ck-sources-3.8.3 users reported to me a regression occurring when booting in UEFI mode. - After analysis, I believe that it is related to a problem reported here : https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/2/21/461 - A couple of patches have been submitted by Matthew Garrett : https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/19/487 https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/26/661 https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/3/26/669 - I have parsed (but possibly not carefully enough) Greg's logs for the 3.8 branch and the above mentioned patches does not seem having been backported. => I believe that this regression is likely to still be efficient in 3.8.7. Gratefully, Eric
