Hi, could any of this cause a (kinda) full resync from the mirrors? Because an emerge --sync I'm doing now is syncing up _all_ files in the tree and taking ages on my laptop, on the other hand the emerge --sync I did yesterday at around 1400 CET just synced the changed files, as usual... I also tried multiple mirrors, thinking maybe one of them was the problem, but they all happily continued syncing everything. At the end of the sync, Portage also processed all the update-files, which too is strange. All the modification times of the files seem to have been updated... The date on my system is set correctly, so I can't really explain why this would suddenly happen, as between yesterday and today I didn't update Portage or rsync. -- Best regards, Luca Longinotti aka chtekk.

[gentoo-dev] net-www/apache-1* masked.
Hi all! As announced in the 30 April 2007 edition of GWN [1], net-www/apache-1* as well as all packages depending/using it were masked, pending removal on 12 June 2007. I fixed all packages, dependencies, etc. I could find to work correctly after the masking (generally removing Apache 1.X support from them). If you find any issue still, please open a bug about it, assign it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and make it block bug #178189 [2]. If you use or plan on using the apache-module or depend.apache eclasses, be aware that the need_apache function doesn't anymore export the apache2 USE flag to IUSE, since now it directly depends on Apache 2.X, so be sure to declare it in your ebuilds IUSE (I fixed the few cases where this wasn't already done). Thanks and happy upgrading to Apache 2.X!

A lot of those are "WTF??? segfault? eh?" and/or waiting on user input because they're irreproducible by the devs involved, but I agree, there are a lot of open ones because lately it seems that people tend to just go MIA, return sometimes, do 1-2 commits, then away again...

We've all seen how we don't need more than a few mp3 players when trying to remove XMMS, which is _broken_, _old_ and _dead_. :) One of Gentoo's strenghts is the "it's all about choice" paradigm, don't ever remove that, ever. ;) If there are people willing to maintain them, or if they are not broken and perfectly work, don't kill stuff just because you think it's duplicate/useless/unpopular. > We would provide a set of packages for most things a > user would want to do and then sunrise/someone else provides ebuilds > for the rest.

Yes, but we're a meta-distro, we do not know what the user wants to do, he just does... I myself run desktops and www-servers, mail-servers, others run embedded-apps, game-servers etc... So the whole breaking stuff up idea that's cursing atm through the blogs just doesn't cut it, and would imo in the end only increase maintainance because packages are spread out and you have to jump through loops to get them like you want. >> > - Formal approval process (or at least strict criteria) for adding >> > new packages >> >> Err what? > > I believe that we have too many packages for us to maintain.

TreeCleaners, to an extent Security etc. _do_ remove what is dead, what has reached points of unmaintainability and brokenness that cannot be anymore supported. The rest still is there because it works (so why remove it?), or because it has someone that keeps it alive (so why remove it?). If there's something to do here, it's kicking out old, broken stuff etc. faster and improving QA (as Kevin already pointed out), definitely not making it so difficult to add new stuff that no one will, that only produces stagnation of the tree in the end. >> > - Make every dev a member of at least 1 arch team >> >> Which doesn't mean he will ever keyword stuff stable, other than his >> own, which he already can... > > Every developer should have access to at least 1 Gentoo system.

But that's exactly what the arch-teams were created "against"... From what I always understood arch-teams are there to have a second set of eyes for stabling and testing stuff, even if the maintainer himself can do that. Then he can stable his own stuff (just ask the arch-team permission), or not... And the arch-team may or not give permission, depends on the package in question. That's a relatively good approach that ensures a measure of peer-review at least on the "important" packages. >> > - Double the number of developers with aggressive recruiting >> >> That's something that goes on since... > > Even when someone is found it is hard for them to find mentors.

Here are my ideas for fixing this problem: Maybe, maybe not... Projects exist, so there is at least _someone_ that's interested in them... If that's not true, then ok, just remove that project... Let's start the comments on the 10 points (all imho): > - Cut the number of packages in half (put the removed ebuilds in > community run overlays) Who decides what goes away and what now? Which criteria is used here? Btw, this is already being done splendidly by the TreeCleaners project, and Sunrise and other overlays are already absorbing stuff from the community. > - Formal approval process (or at least strict criteria) for adding > new packages Err what? So I, as a dev, that did quizzes, etc., cannot even anymore just add the package that has got my fancy atm, because there are some criteria to what is added and what not, and I have to go through a bureaucratic process just for that? Never! If for strict criteria you mean "there must be at least a dev or herd maintaining it", or such stuff, they already exist, they may just need some more enforcing... ;) > - Make every dev a member of at least 1 arch team Which doesn't mean he will ever keyword stuff stable, other than his own, which he already can... Let's face it: most devs are mainly interested in their stuff, getting their stuff keyworded, and many wouldn't anyway have the time to efficiently work on an arch-team, as members of such I mean, not just as "I'm a member, so I keyword my stuff, that's it"... For that I agree with the current practice: if you want that, ask the arch-team first. ;) > - Double the number of developers with aggressive recruiting That's something that goes on since... forever! Gentoo's continuously recruiting new people, more aggressive recruiting has already been proposed many times, but it was always agreed to try to maintain a relatively high standard of new recruits, and if you want quality, finding loads of people who "just happen" to have the time and dedication to become a Gentoo dev isn't that easy. > - No competing projects Kills innovation... Who comes first has total monopoly of that branch of things basically... I'd never agree to something like this, personally. > - New projects must have 5 devs, a formal plan, and be approved by the > council New projects do always have a plan, they wouldn't be created else... ;) Making it formal, be approved by the council... How to slow everything down? We continuously see how adding bureaucratic stuff just suffocates innovation, I totally agree with discussion et all, but not really on the need to have everything approved by someone (the council in this case)... The council may kill the project later on if it's doing totally crazy shit, but that's another thing entirely... > - Devs can only belong to 5 projects at most Why? If someone has time to dedicate and work on a lot of projects, why not? > - Drop all arches and Gentoo/Alt projects except Linux on amd64, > ppc32/64, sparc, and x86 Uhhh is this real? How would this help at all? Hell, it would make things worse to an extent, we've already seen that at least Gentoo/BSD helped in finding problems in ebuilds using too GNUish stuff, other arches may help in finding broken code, etc.. I'd agree with some proposal to relax keywording policy for all arches you've not listed, since on those others, sadly, not soo many people are active, and you get to wait on keywords for months sometimes... This is something we should imo address from an arch-team PoV, some kind of "if they don't react in time, I can drop their keyword back to unstable or entirely", or something like that, that would help many package maintainers I think. > - Reduce the number of projects by eliminating the dead, weak, > understaffed, and unnecessary projects Again, who's the judge of that? If there is a project with at least one person active, it means for him it's not unnecessary... What means weak project? What's unnecessary? Sure, kill the dead ones with no activity and no active members, that's easy and I agree with that, but the other, little ones, who's the one to say "you're understaffed and useless, go die!"? :S > - Project status

Heck, the monthly meetings could be > considered a minimum... Indeed. I have to agree with Ciaran here, a stronger council seems to be one of the best solutions. A (benevolent) dictatorship, or the opposite of extending the democracy level even more, aren't going to solve anything imho. The dictatorship model sure doesn't motivate volunteers, and having more than one person is anyway better, as already pointed out, to not have single points of failure, or potential for quick and big damage. The opposite of a total democracy too doesn't cut it, when anyone starts having the power to put stuff to vote, make up referendums etc., things start to slow down and get caught up in endless bureaucracy (I'm swiss, it happens there, often, not that it isn't a good thing for something like a nation, but for something the size of Gentoo, and with the scope of Gentoo, it would just hurt imho). > | The council has its merits, but it also has its weaknesses, this one > | being one of them.

The ability of the council to hold arbitrary mini-meetings when needed, and eventually change the decisions at a later date (with a time limit of course, so that people can start doing work, and at the same time don't do too much work for it to then be eventually refused) if there is extreme opposition (basically if you have only 2 members around, those decides "YES", and the other 5 then tell "NO NO NO!") would seem the best course of action to me. Having the "one council leader" doesn't cut it, as Ciaran already mentioned for reasons of availability, and again we'd introduce a possible "quick" point-of-failure. If there is a decision that needs to be done extremely quick, just get together the council members that are there and do it, although I wouldn't expect it to be commonplace to have decisions that affect the whole of Gentoo that need to be taken in like an hour or two, at least 1-4 days of time to "prepare" for the decision can always be required, thus allowing the council members to be there in a reasonable amount for those mini-meetings, and if not, but if they know they want to say something, there still are proxies that can act for them. Raising the number to two co-leads can also be a solution, but what if exactly those two are away for whatever reason, but the other 5 are around? Now do they have to wait on one of the aforementioned two people to do anything? That still is a possible point-of-failure, which the other model (who is there decides, who is not does not) would solve relatively well. -- Best regards, Luca Longinotti aka CHTEKK LongiTEKK Networks Admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gentoo Dev: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SysCP Dev: [EMAIL PROTECTED] TILUG Supporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

I'm not really sure the proxy-dev thing would even have success, cause it's already done now by many herds and people, both using overlay and/or privately (e-mail etc.), but they do it _only_ for stuff they are really intersted in, how many would just do this direct dev-to-user maintainershop for stuff they absolutely don't care for? Anyway I'm not against this, with the proxy herd, ml et all, it could imo be organized well and who's intersted can for sure communicate and work like he wants etc., I just cannot see this as a 1:1 alternative to Sunrise, and here I could have just misunderstood the first mail, maybe this wants to only be an additional project, another channel, not the only one? -- Best regards, Luca Longinotti aka CHTEKK LongiTEKK Networks Admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gentoo Dev: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SysCP Dev: [EMAIL PROTECTED] TILUG Supporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

[gentoo-dev] Old-style PHP packages vanishing
The PHP Herd announces that the old-style PHP packages, which were unsupported and deprecated for months, are finally going away. After months of work, the team considers the new dev-lang/php package and the related dev-php[4,5]/ categories fully ready for production use, and encourage all users to upgrade. Helpful informations can be found at the PHP project’s pages [1], along with a HOWTO [2] regarding the migration to dev-lang/php. The old-style PHP packages (dev-php/php, dev-php/php-cgi, dev-php/mod_php, dev-php/PECL-*, and older dev-php/PEAR-* packages) will be package.masked on Wednesday, 19 April 2006, and removed from the Portage tree about a month later.
