So, a round up of remaining issues:
* http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/19854, --ignore is ignored. This is
the highest priority issue and something I definitely want to get in
3.4.1; I have started on a fix and it shouldn't be too bad but some
code and checks need to move around.
I guess this also covers the IgnoreGroup configuration option doing nothing?
Dan, did that get fixed? I do not remember seeing the patch... This
is the only blocker in my opinion (if that).
* http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/19853, No prompting about groups.
Might even get fixed with the above, and with 24 votes, apparently
people do care (but not enough to answer the patches welcome call).
I suggest we pass on this. It is probably a big change to pull in for a
_bug fix_ release.
* makepkg crashes in terminals without colours. There is a patch on this
list for that and I asked for further info but I do not think there was a
response. There is an easy "hack fix" that could be done for the time
being.
Fixed on my working-maint branch and was just sent to this list.
And something we should probably call out more closely in NEWS: the
old auto-inclusion of changelogs is no more and you need to have a
changelog=myfile in the PKGBUILD to get it. (commit
2cabe336eb33e443819a1d9d46b0c5bcceaa7e87)
We currently have:
- makepkg:
....
- changelogs are now included via the "changelog" variable
I suppose it could be highlighted more, but all the prototypes have it too.
