This is a testing request aimed at all arches that have differing

- ppc64 - 64/32 (tested myself, but more testing needed)
- sparc64 - 64/32

Okay, in that case, extend the vserver herd to include a larger range of

more fitting to group those packages together.
Yeah, to me, having those in the emulation category just
doesn'tfit there, but, that's just me. Maybe we could take xen,
vmware, qemu, and related packages out of app-emulation, and make a new
category, app-virtualization. That would seem to fit a bit better then
emulation.

It would *probably* be easier to take the /usr/portage/distfiles
directory and pop that on a CD, or, have the option of putting those
files in a directory on the livecd. It shouldn't be too hard to do,
however, it would take up more space on the CD.

Hi all,
The mobile herd, a group of laptop and mobile-computing related
ebuilds, desperately needs more maintainers.
We are severely understaffed with only 8 maintainers (several which
are not active in the herd) for 114 ebuilds. We have quite a few
maintainer-wanted bugs sitting in bugzilla
Since I'm not a developer, I can't exactly help with maintaining, but, I
got two laptops so, I bet I could test anything out which you might need
tested. Just let me know if that would help in any way (I got a ton of
free time and nothing to do, so, might as well :)

That's not an option if you are re-digesting the package
It wouldn't be a hard task to accomplish (to put the sources on the
mirrors), since *most* of the source is already on the mirrors in some
form or another. We could make an option when downloading the livecd to
either download ones with the sources included, or without, and, include

Hi folks,
maybe I've found a problem in the init.d stuff:
It seems that /var/lib/init.d/started/* is blindly trusted,
instead of actually checking if some service is running.
For example, ntpd cannot be restarted via its init.d script
if it died for some reason - /var/lib/init.d/started/ntpd

what about /etc/init.d/ntpd zap? It deletes the file on /var/ and set the status of the init.d-file as not
started. It is useful for such a case :)

The problem is: if the service still runs, it will attemt to start it
twice. So this
One slightly hackish way would be the grab the PID, and check in ps aux
as to if it was running. That's one way to do what you are talking
about.

yes, I know. But I read the bug report and Enrico wrote that for some reasons
the service didn't run anymore.
