Looks like it'll be 2-3 days at the most. Solar has one bug that might be a regression. If more info proves that it is, I'd like to throw a fix together quickly and wrap that into _p1 as well. > *cough* that's that funky _p1 you're using there? :) patchlevel... I think it gives a stronger impression that 2.0.53 is distinct from 2.0.54. Is distinct the right word? I mean that it kind of shows that 2.0.53 is done but there was something that needed to be fixed quickly. Given portage's history of using lots of dots, 2.0.53.1 doesn't have as much impact. Is the "*cough*" a complaint of sorts? -- Jason Stubbs -- [email protected] mailing list
