After the announcement, devs can still update the repository as normal, but I request that no new packages be updated without discussing it on the appropriate -dev site first. The target for a -stable release is March 1st. Between Feb 15 and March 1 I predict that LFS will have about 6 new package releases and BLFS will have 40-60. We should just create tickets for them until -stable is released. For BLFS, I'd like to see updates to the packages to say LFS 7.5 checked. I'll start building/checking right after the -rc1. If any non-editors want to participate, just send a message to blfs-dev noting what packages you've checked against the lfs-7.5-rc1 build. Changes (without updating package versions) to clarify or update instructions are OK any time prior to -stable. Please let me know if more clarification is needed. -- Bruce For me it is OK. I plan to update gnutls and include some dependencies in OJDK (latter is no problem for package freeze). However, each time Firefox is updated, there is a Thunderbird and a Seamonkey, normally, few days after. As no package depends on them, apparently, I would like to open these two exceptions, and update them, if they appear in a couple of days. -- []s, Fernando -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
