Here's the list of ongoing items from 2 weeks ago: http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_bb3a3a0c1b0acb771a263294a67b722e.xml Here's the council summary from 2 weeks ago: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/meeting-logs/20080710-summary.txt GLEP 54 has not received any updates since the last meeting so hopefully it will for the first August meeting. The as-needed proposal is waiting on antarus. The userrel and CoC threads on the -council mailing list haven't yet received replies from the majority of council members. Council, please post your opinions to them by the end of this week so we can get those dealt with. -- Thanks, Donnie Donnie Berkholz Developer, Gentoo Linux Blog: http://dberkholz.wordpress.com pgpVQdSyOoqVd.pgp Description: PGP signature
[gentoo-dev] Gentoo Council Reminder for July 24
This is your friendly reminder! Same bat time (typically the 2nd/4th Thursdays at 2000 UTC / 1600 EST), same bat channel (#gentoo-council @ irc.freenode.net) ! If you have something you'd wish for us to chat about, maybe even vote on, let us know! Simply reply to this e-mail for the whole Gentoo dev list to see. Keep in mind that every GLEP *re*submission to the council for review must first be sent to the gentoo-dev mailing list 7 days (minimum) before being submitted as an agenda item which itself occurs 7 days before the meeting. Simply put, the gentoo-dev mailing list must be notified at least 14 days before the meeting itself. For more info on the Gentoo Council, feel free to browse our homepage: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/ (Since I'm at a conference and consequently sent this notice <7 days in advance, feel free to submit new agenda items late as well. We need to set up a new cron job for this.) -- Thanks, Donnie Donnie Berkholz Developer, Gentoo Linux Blog: http://dberkholz.wordpress.com pgpgXYZJVw6E3.pgp Description: PGP signature

I know, but just because it did (not) happen in your case doesn't mean it will be the same for everyone else. Marius Given the same package set and world file that I have, it will happen every time. Also specific variations of my package set and world file will result in the issue. Which means that it will occur for other people but no one ever said everyone.

I don't really know how to address this but a lot of packages are going to have to be updated to contain proper depends. i.e. C based apps will need RDEPEND="virtual/libc". C++ packages will need a stdc++ depend. Adding a dep to libc almost everywhere seems extremely wrong to me. I though we had decided many times that it was a bad idea. Yes. Adding libc everywhere is wrong. However, if you don't have one of the packages listed here [1], your libc won't ever update. Now that's a big exaggeration.
