My build is still running (and won't be a complete build until I fix a few more Python ports for EXT_SUFFIX problems), and i386 misses some things so kmos' build will give useful results too. The only failure that looks like swig is games/fifengine; this will probably fix it (untested): https://github.com/fifengine/fifengine/commit/d14f232f4cd9a00b05d6872957070e8c020f515d.patch Looking at how things are going with the build I don't think we will require the swig update specifically for 3.8.7 but it would make sense to do it all close together I think. > The funny thing is I do use cvs2svn but haven't fired it up for a few > months, but I'd like to keep it in the repo.
