[gentoo-dev] Call for testing from toolchain team: glibc-2.34
Hi, toolchain@ would appreciate if folks could keyword glibc-2.34 locally on non-production machines to help root out any bugs. The tracker bug is doing pretty well at this point with most remaining issues being in last-rited packages or being tracked upstream: https://bugs.gentoo.org/803482. There are no plans to keyword glibc-2.34 yet given there's a few large changes and we've not yet got over the libxcrypt hump (that's coming very shortly, stabilisation planned for 2021-11-01!). But you can't start planning too early ;) I would not recommend doing this on a machine with Chromium or anything Electron based for now as I haven't had a chance to check if the sandbox stuff has been updated. I _think_ Firefox is fine now (at least in the latest versions >= 91?). If you're able, please therefore keyword glibc-2.34 on systems where you're up for a bit of experimentation, and ideally rebuild (-ev @world) and report any bugs. If you feel generous, run FEATURES=test on some/all stuff too. Please drop into #gentoo-toolchain if you have any questions or issues we need to debug together. Cheers! Best, sam

Because users, who have already upgraded to 4.0, had seen ewarn in pkg_pretend phase: => https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/net-news/rssguard/rssguard-4.0.3.ebuild?id=026dfe93d6c7e9a5e5c51dc94d0364bfbf3a6b03#n34

Since >=4.0 has been available for quite some time already (package.masked), people might've done the upgrade with the info available in pkg_postinst(). And then again this news item seems useless if you never had <4.0 installed anyway. You should receive a notification about this news item after you sync, before you world-update. I do prefer it like this, seems a bit clearer, but no strong opinions either way... -- juippis OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature

This will better align the written policy with what actually happens in reality, so I'm all for it! Thanks for bringing this up. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
