I think, resolving as UPSTREAM might be more logical as we can't force
every upstream to fix their *borked* build system and the bug will be
left open forever.
Diego 'Flameeyes' Pettenò yazmış:
Guys, please remember that if you work something around, you should
_not_ close the bug as RESO FIXED but keep the bug open so that the
issue can be addressed and fixed _properly_. Otherwise we'll end up with
ebuilds full of workarounds without even documentation on why the
workaround is applied!
With workarounds I mean, as examples:
- FEATURES=test failures;
- broken parallel make that requires -j1;
- flags filtering, included -Wl,--no-as-needed appending
This is important because:
a) we want test to work or get fixed upstream;
b) we want users to get parallel build if they request parallel build;
c) we want --as-needed to be used, not ignored.
If the bug is open and comes out on searches and all the rest, then we
have higher chances that someone might _fix_ it, without having to look
to see if there actually is one...
Thanks!
