[gentoo-dev] About ppc status and stable keywords

2012-07-08 Thread Pacho Ramos
For a long time I have been observing ppc team reacts really slowly to stabilization requests, causing us to need to keep old ebuilds for a long time. Maybe it's time to start dropping stable keywords for ppc as looks like team doesn't have enough man power to keep stable updated. What do you

[gentoo-dev] maintainer needed for app-emul/playonlinux

2012-07-08 Thread Michael Mol
I filed bug 425330. Nothing special, I'm just a heavy user and advocate of IPv6, and I figured I ought to file the bug locally so that the Gentoo dev associated with it can run it up the flagpole to upstream. I just saw that it's now CC'd to maintainer-needed. I don't like it when packages I use

Hi all, I'd like just to receive a short clarification about the 'status' of base.eclass: Is this eclass expected to be available everywhere, i.e. should each eclass make sure it imports and incorporates it. Or is it just an eclass like the others and ebuilds should make sure they inherit it if

[gentoo-dev] Last rites for net-ftp/netkit-tftp

2012-07-08 Thread Diego Elio Pettenò
I just fixed a (reported) buffer overflow on it (not a security bug), but the code is very bad and I'm expecting more issues in the future. The ebuild wasn't bumped since 2008, the upstream FTP site is entirely gone (there's no more the _domain_ of it), and net-ftp/tftp-hpa should replace it in

Just a few more packages that I'm no longer using or for which I no longer have hardware or so on so forth. Yes I'm still cleaning this stuff up. Notes in brackets below a list. * indicates a dependency of the described package; + indicates there is another maintainer/herd for it anyway.

[gentoo-dev] inittab with SIGPWR support

2012-07-08 Thread Diego Elio Pettenò
Hi all, To have a better support for Gentoo lxc guests, it would be nice if our default inittab contained a line for handling SIGPWR sent to PID 1 to shut the system down. As far as I can tell systemd and upstart already do that, which then makes it possible to have LXC handle most Linux guests
