Re: [gentoo-dev] EAPI change: Call ebuild functions from trusted working directory

Robert isn't requesting that we specify and mandate existing behaviour here, so it's not really something that should be left up to PMS to decide and enforce. All package manager developers have implemented this change, and PMS editors have not objected to adding it to the spec. If Ciaran is uncomfortable with adding this change, I would like council to sign off on it. If council will not add this to the agenda, please state so and I hope the PMS folks can add it to the spec without a vote. Furthermore, what are the blockers to vote on PMS as a draft standard for EAPI=0 ? Is there a timeframe for its ratification? Has this been discussed in the last council meeting? If not, can you please give a reply for the questions above? Robert signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
[gentoo-dev] RFC: Having a seperate package for libiptc
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hey all, ~From version 1.4.1.1 of iptables, libiptc headers and library is no longer installed. Since some programs still depends on it (net-misc/miniupnpd which will be hitting the tree as soon as this is sorted out, and probably some other programs too), and there is no real alternative to it right now. What do you think - Should I add this library ebuild to the tree, or should I just give up getting miniupnpd added to the tree, since there is no alternative to using libiptc? I already have an ebuild for it that compiles iptables, and just installs the headers and library files, and my local tests shows that it works fine here. Best regards, Bjarke. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkkCUbgACgkQO+Ewtpi9rLFq/ACfdbCQnwa510+Vl91Zo1nk3Fid vpQAn3Puoi6ijvZYihLgSLwxWzhkwUqI =x/5E -END PGP SIGNATURE-

Unless vapier has a strong reason not to include libiptc, you should rather just modify the main iptables ebuild to install the library again. Adding a separate variant of the package just for the library is a sure way to cause missed security patches and bugfixes later on (see shades of xpdf). -- Robin Hugh Johnson Gentoo Linux Developer Infra Guy E-Mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85 pgp34OHxWUS1s.pgp Description: PGP signature
