I only started fixing summaries to include valid, canonical cat/pkg[-ver] strings a few years ago because searching for a full atom in bugzilla's search would otherwise (and still does) fail. Before that it was mayhem, and it's mainly the older bugs you appear be worried about. Having a list of bugs to fix the cat/pkg for would have more uses than the one you're interested in. jer I obviously agree, but both suggestions are not mutually exclusive I think :) This is another example I hit today: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247750 that would benefit from this QA report signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
[gentoo-dev] Lastrite: sci-chemistry/gchemutils
I can be convinced to work on this again after goffice maintainers get new version in tree, but for now... # Samuli Suominen ssuomi...@gentoo.org (18 Apr 2012) # Fails to build according to bugs 348231 and 388509. # Needs a version bump but required goffice version is not # yet in Portage wrt bug 37. # Because of above mentioned bugs nsplugin support was removed # wrt bug 383147. # Removal in 30 days sci-chemistry/gchemutils-0.13.6
[gentoo-dev] plymouth maintainer-needed
Hi, I no longer use plymouth and have no more will to work on it, but because I believe many users use this package it would be good if somebody take maintainership of it. There's only one serious bug opened at this time and there's no much work with this package. I have also written some howto for users: http://dev.gentoo.org/~aidecoe/doc/en/plymouth.xml (Append .src to get the source.) You can move it anywhere you want. Plymouth has plugin I have written for OpenRC (see its openrc use flag) which is more proof-of-concept rather something to be used really seriously, therefore best would be to drop this plugin and support only systemd which is supported by upstream ootb. I'm happy to answer any question and help at the beginning with maintaining it. Cheers, -- Amadeusz Żołnowski signature.asc Description: PGP signature
