Re: [gentoo-dev] The future of ebuild

2008-02-25 Thread Jakub Moc

Santiago M. Mola napsal(a):

This is not going to happen. "Migrating to Nix" means "rewriting the
distro from scratch".  If you´re interested in a distro built on top
of Nix, you can try NixOS (which looks really nice IMO).

Regards,
Santiago


While we are switching the whole tree to Nix, I'd strongly advocate that:

1/ All ebuilds must be rewritten in whitespace [1]; that will have the 
great side-effect that all those pesky whitespace repoman checks will 
start to be meaningful finally.


2/ All eclasses must be rewritten in Piet [2] at the same time, so that 
we make dev's life a bit more colorful once the former step. is 
finished. There is already a platform-independent IDE ready for this 
purpose after all [3].


Since the benefits of the above are so obvious, I suppose this doesn't 
even require a GLEP and the porting work should therefore start 
immediately to make it in time for 2008.0.


Have a nice day. :P

As noted before, they are implemented, just not allowed in the tree.
Plus, what vapier said, this info belongs to the ebuilds, not to profiles.

Wrt pidgin - seriously, what's the big issue here? Users can't use
emerge -pv output and determine what they want, or? Will we bloat the
profiles everytime someone forgets to enable a flag and goes complain

Can we please stop this direction? My ZOMG was there to share my
frustration from getting my mailbox flooded by stuff I'm totally not
interested in and which has nothing to do with gentoo *development*.

For less sucky ways of expressing similar feelings as mine, please refer
to http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_131667.xml - sadly, the
picture is gone now :(

To bring this debate back on track - the current council proposal
*fails* to address the real problem: people should not be required to be
subscribed to gentoo-dev (moderated or non-moderated) and important
announcements should be directed to a different (IMO read-only) list.

Why don't we use current gentoo-announce list for seems to exist for
this exact purpose? In that way, people who wish to participate in
on-topic, off-topic or straight retarded debates would still have the
choice to do so, while not forcing the majority of others to 'mark
folder as read' every 6 hours.

TIA.

This check in this particular ebuild won't add anything useful; will
just bug users redundantly to accept a license which they'll have to
accept once again on the first run. Kinda miss the point here.

Why would you need RESTRICT=fetch for stuff that displays license on
runtime and requires clicking on Accept there? You can as well remove
the package altogether because the 'trial version' is not downloadable
via their website, there's no license to click on and an attempt to
download the 'update version' (whatever it is) goes like this:


Could not find an appropriate hxplay or realplay in the system path to
use as an embedded player.

M'kay... about 3 gnome apps have issues w/ gnupg-2. Seriously, I could

what's the horrible issue with porting those, beyond 'oh we don't care,
use gnupg-1 because the legacy feeling is oh so great'?

Exactly one of the reasons there's been no preserve_old_libs thing in
the ebuild in the first place.

It's been discussed with the original maintainer over and over again,
and the conclusion was that it's not safe to have two versions of expat
installed on the same system. So, why don't we just stick to that and be
done with it?

Leaving the old-style virtuals in place leaves the new style ones

As the name unrar suggests, it doesn't *pack* stuff, in only unpacks it.
So, thanks and leave the thing alone in the tree; and yeah, there are

Please, drop this thing from the tree. It has clearly no future in
Gentoo anyway:

http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/tur-users/2007-April/004644.html


> The only way to keep absolute control over the product as delivered to

I am going to do that. And, in fact, after final Ion3 is released, I'm
not going to write a line of so-called "free software"; so poor has
been the treatment of the FOSS herd (both of my code, and of the good
old *nix), that I'm not going to do them any services any more.


This post provides a very good reasoning so I'll just link it:

http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/tur-users/2007-April/004653.html

P.S. And, please forget the 'but we only distribute ebuild, not the
package' line. The guy is seriously paranoid, annoying and crazy. Next
time he's apparently gonna claim that portage is a derivative work of Ion3.

http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/tur-users/2007-April/004663.html
http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/tur-users/2007-April/004659.html

I'm not interested in his personal crusade against font handling on
Linux, nor are most of users. No place for such frenzy in Gentoo - not
worth the trouble, and noone should encourage such attitude, more
importantly.


FOSS shit has been on a constant downward slide ever since I started
using it back in '95-'96, especially after all sorts of world domination
plans, like Gnome, were announced. Windows, OTOH, has improved, although
Vista has a small degradation again: you also can't easily disable the
blurry fonts completely, just like Linux that requires writing loads
of XML shit to do so. Maybe they've employed a few representative
specimens of the FOSS herd -- a bunch of teenagers wanking to buzzwords,
instead of pr0n. No wonder they can't tell a blurry font from a crisp
one.


Once again, I don't want to use any software produced by such abusive
moron, and other people should do the same - or they should help them
themselves and compile the only original, trademarked Ion3 (C)(TM) manually.

*annoyed*

Sure they will gets zillions of them if everyone starts abusing this

Why would you acknowledge them? They are a different feature (plus,
seriously no mail gets automagically marked as read, if you use the mail
elog feature e.g. Maybe you should actually try to use the stuff before
recycling your 'our experience shows' and 'elog sucks' scratched record
once again.)

Plus, why's this thread been hijacked again for the paludis upgrade
stuff that doesn't need any news at all and that's been committed in
breach of GLEP42 itself?!

- paludis already loudly warns about the deprecated syntax whenever used;
- drop this "users like it" and "experience has shown" stuff. Experience
based on 4 news items is no experience at all; experience based on
one-package overlay is irrelevant wrt a repository with thousands of
ebuilds; and "users like it" may be nice for one package overlay, and a
genuine PITA for a tree with thousands of ebuilds at the same time.
Repeating it doesn't go anywhere, nor will it make any of your point
more valid.


Thanks.

I'm not trying to sabotage anything but total misuse of the feature.
Would have the same objections wrt whatever other "critical" news that'd
constitute completely inappropriate usage of GLEP42 features. (And I'd
expect that you'd show a bit more knowledge of the GLEP you are a
co-author of, frankly.)

The relevant paludis output has been pasted twice already, so let me try
one last time:


  ... Use of token '*' is deprecated, use '*/*' instead


How much more explanation about this 'critical' change do the users
*need*? If they don't get the above, maybe paludis and Linux just isn't
for them and they should stick to Windows. Meanwhile there's no need to
establish a precedent of using critical news for PEBKAC issues.

Erm, not really? This is about proper usage of GLEP42 stuff. If you want
to improve user experience in other ways, file another GLEP for that,
instead of misusing critical news porting for is. There's nothing

OK, is this the 'how stupid this thread can become' contest? Lets quote
one of the previous mails then:


[EMAIL PROTECTED]: [WARNING] In program paludis -ip kdelibs:

You seriously want to claim that paludis users can't read? Again; what
exactly are you after here? (And drop the 'experience has shown', 'users
want it', 'it's non-trivial' etc. etc. rhetoric please - it doesn't go
anywhere nor does it explain anything.)

Well, then frankly feed those news to your overlay users; we don't need
such stuff abused in gentoo-x86 because paludis users are unable
(according to your claims) read explicit runtime deprecation warnings.

Yeah, I seriously think package documentation belongs to tarballs and
gets installed to /usr/share/docs/${PF} - not to gentoo-x86 repository
where you are forcing every single user to download such stuff via rsync
and have it sitting on their disk even if they don't use the package at
all.

And if you need a pointer to new features, a simple 'elog "Read the
NEWS/Changelog in /usr/share/doc/${PF}" or a link to a website is
definitely more appropriate that abusing critical news for howtos and
new features announcement.

That's not what I've been pointing out at all, you've completely snipped
the important part about *unintended* use of this feature. So, once
again - this is not an elog replacement and is not intended for trivial
stuff (see the 'critical news' in GLEP42 title).

Well again, what kind of experience? You cannot just carry over an
existing practice of heavily abusing such stuff in a particular overlay
with a couple of ebuilds and implant it into a tree with thousands of
packages - it will produce loads of annoying noise and the feature will
become useless if every maintainer starts to use news framework in a
similar way.

How does it matter exactly whether it's paludis users, gcc users, php
users, apache users or whoever else who will use the news item? Let's
not misuse news framework for stuff that

- it's not been intended for (i.e. do not use it as elog replacement,
see GLEP 42)
- for trivialities in general

For this particular case, you can (and do even) advise specifically the
affected users only on runtime that the config files syntax has been
changed. (Frankly, you don't even need elog stuff for similar things;
everyone concerned will get the message paludis spits on the screen when
they try to use it).

For what situation? Changing * to */* is a bunch of config files (as far

Disabling static linking has - for me - before all the advantage of reducing

So I'm curious why (nearly?) all ebuilds build static _and_ dynamic libraries?
I understand that the current way is pretty hassle-free. But from my

It's not like that the maintainers would use such stuff because 'oh

Its obviously not, Many users are reporting file-collisions on a weekly

you describe.


This can't be done yet, there's a couple of minor issues to iron out
(some python and gcc stuff collisions). After those few remaining
issues get finished, yeah this would be a useful default FEATURE.
There's quite a couple of bugs (usually pretty cryptic ones) caused by
clobbering files that belong to other ebuilds.

@Opfer: Users will usually notice many more of those collisions simply
because they are testing on a system that they normally use, while
developers are often testing in chroots or test boxes with just the
bare-bones system installed.

Why did you once again ignore the points I have made wrt this? Over

that's been done routinely all the time. And I've said that if any

But as stated in my original resignation, slacking developers feeling

[gentoo-dev] Resignation

2007-04-16 Thread Jakub Moc

So  Since devrel has been so kind and suspended me, based on our
brand new CoC, I don't feel any need to stay on this project any more.
I'm therefore resigning from this project.

I'm pretty sure it will be actually no loss for Gentoo, since those
folks that contributed to my retirement far outweigh the benefit I
could ever possibly be to this project. This can be clearly evidenced
by their long-lasting good record as in [1] and [2] and [3]. In
devrel's own words, one needs to  "respect the wishes of maintainers".

So I'm respecting the wishes of said developer and am getting out of
his way - cheers and keep slackin', Colin! Keep on the great work! I
fully understand that respect for wishes of maintainers is far more
important than fixing stuff in the tree for our users; unfortunately
those wishes are incompatible with my tasks of a bug wrangler. Of
course that can be quickly remedied by taking simple steps such as
suspending the offenders who complain on the bugs, so no big deal.

I'd also like to express my sincere thanks to our QA team, they've
been a tremendous help to me, especially since spb took the position
of QA lead and eroyf  joined them. This can be documented on way too
many bugs, this email is getting long so I'd just mention [4] as a
good example of nice work these folks have been doing. Also thanks for
the neutral approach you've taken on the other bugs quoted above, I'm
pretty sure that's the right thing to do for QA. No need at all to be
concerned about bugs that have been sitting there for mere two years,
we shouldn't make the precious maintainers angry, right.

Finally, my thanks go to devrel and especially our devrel lead, for
the professional,  unbiased etc. conduct they've presented on my
devrel bug [5] (sorry, ask your friendly devrel member to unrestrict
if you can't read it, after all I can't access it either), as well as
before. I indeed entirely failed when I removed myself from the
"discussion about possible misbehaviour on [my] side". I'm pretty sure
the fact that noone CCed me there in the first place for about 9
months was just an unfortunate oversight of our fully professional
devrel. So, thanks a bunch again, kloeri. I'm the worst CoC offender
in the whole Gentoo ever, and fully deserve to be punished. In no way
we should disturb the old good boys club around #-uk, that could
endanger your position and would require guts; no need for that.

Whoever is in charge, kindly change my bugzilla account to the email
address this mail is sent from and take care of the setting the
bugzilla privs accordingly. There's still a couple of bugs I've filed
and maybe someone will take care of them. (No need to worry, Colin,
you can sit on your bugs as long as you wish, I won't disturb you in
your limbo),

For all the rest of folks that haven't found themselves above, sorry,
no thanks for you in this mail. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't
appreciate to be thanked in this context, and that's a good thing.

So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish!

I'm not implying there's anything wrong w/ restricting the bug; just

Err, your suggestion was:

* Remove automatic directory making for do*

So, yeah I really fail to see the point of doing stuff like this:

-dobin foo

+dobin foo

or

-exeinto /usr/share/${PN}/scripts
-doexe scripts/*
+exeinto /usr/share/${PN}/scripts

all over the tree.

Well of course it's the users who will see it, see above. It's not like
that we would have 100 volunteers around to drop everything they have in
their hands a go spend days on changing ebuilds that are not broken just

I'd rather not create such bugs for starters, because it's plain pointless.

If the Makefiles suck, file bugs upstream instead of dumping the stuff

It not only doesn't work for me, it doesn't work for majority of people

Hmmm, I'm not entirely sure what are you responding to here? What I said
was that "ALSA upstream won't accept bugs about in-kernel drivers" - now
how's that related to whether you (or kernel upstream) support them or not?

Additionally - forcing people to upgrade kernel for their sound issues
is not a solution for many of them. Kernel upgrades tend to break lots
of stuff on every minor version bump (and it's not only external modules
that upstream seems to plain hate and ignore mostly). Not exactly what
users would like to see when all they are trying to get is working
sound. Plus it's lot easier (and faster) to get patches into external
drivers than get them accepted into kernel.

 > Interestingly in this case, the in-kernel driver is a touch newer than

> Again these are only very small differences though.

As said, it's not about code being newer or older, it's about having two
different branches of the code. One works for someone, the other works
for someone else. What's exactly the benefit from trying to kill support
for upstream ALSA code and forcing people to use in-kernel drivers
(beyond what you see as 'duplicated' maintenance effort)? Users honestly
don't care much about 'duplicated' effort, they want a working sound on
their boxes.

I could say the same about your assessment of the in-kernel hda-intel
drivers, as could many other users... Same for via82xx - never had much
luck with the in-kernel drivers, plus upgrading the whole kernel over
and over again just to test whether something got fixed is a major PITA.

As said, these are two different branches, what works for somebody
doesn't need to work for someone else.

I really don't get these fights, the two things can co-exist quite
nicely and users can benefit from this. What's this need to 'deprecate'
the external stuff once again about? (And yeah, ALSA upstream doesn't
deal with in-kernel drivers bugs.)

Both should be supported, as explained above. Spurious bugs? Not really
sure what you mean.

And no, kernel 2.4 is definitely not *the* reason to keep the external
alsa drivers supported (Frankly I'd be very happy to see the whole 2.4
kernel branch declared as unsupported on Gentoo - noone's really testing
anything against those kernels these days and the bugs are lingering
there for ages as noone cares; even the 2.4 kernels we still have in the
tree are pretty much unmaintained).

Uhm... Sorry to see this issue brought up yet again. Just a couple of
brief notes:

- The in-kernel drivers seriously are not an equivalent alternative, let
alone the preferred one, for stuff like hda-intel or any similar drivers
that are under permanent heavy development, at least for now.

- This is not a duplicated maintenance effort, it's simply needed to
have external alsa-drivers ebuilds, and it's needed to have them
supported as ALSA upstream won't accept bugs about in-kernel drivers.

- The two are basically different branches, and it's *not* about whether
the code is newer or older in one or the other at all.

Indeed... Don't re-unmask junk that breaks tons of things just because
an unused library version happens to depend on such junk. The whole
virtual/x11 dumpspace for missing deps was a horrible idea since the
very beginning and needs to die, now. It's already pretty overdue. It's
caused hundreds and hundreds of pointless bugs about 'missing'
dependencies and it's still breaking users. I could care less about
fox-1.2.6-r2, having this darned virtual unmasked breaks lots more
things than fox. There's no need for official QA proclamations about this.

Hmmm, I'm not sure how much of an regression this is. AFAICT bugzilla
always required to prefix the search with ALL if you want to search for
resolved bugs as well. There's even a note about this directly on the
homepage, below the search box. :)

BTW, the tracker bug got closed on last upgrade, and this hasn't been
raised there at all. You've mentioned [1] a different issue, that was
about the advanced search which not too many users are using, I'd say.

(We are getting loads of duplicates for bugs that are still open as
well, this implies that people either don't search at all or don't know
how to search efficiently; so I'm not too enthusiastic that changing the
default search would significantly reduce the number of dupes... )

I guess you are missing the point? Fire up Midnight Commander and watch
the cruft in your ~/; sure there'd be a point to move all these config
files to a dedicated directory, instead of having them directly in ~/
(and no, I don't want to hide 'hidden' directories, this is not a
Windows Explorer :P)

Such as media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.14_rc2_p3234 ? :)

Anyway, if you have better ideas, move them to Bug 166522; multiple

Actually stuff like cat/pkg-1.2_alpha3_pre4 is valid now and honored by

No, Diego asked to not keyword an obsolete KDE meta version ~mips
because we all know the history with MIPS keywording and lingering stale
crap in portage; also because it's completely unneeded for KDE support
on mips and also because it'd create a huge and pointless maintenance
overhead for already understaffed KDE team. That definitely doesn't
qualify as 'being an asshole', it was a legitimate maintainer's request
based on long-term experience with mips team.

I'm not putting anything in anyone's mouth, and I'd suggest that you
wash your mouth before further posting to this mailing list, your
vocabulary is kinda ridiculous.

Plus, everyone can read the babysitting history on the relevant
keywording bug (yeah if anyone wonders, kdelibs still unkeyworded about
5 months after the bug has been filed).

So, what are you planning to do about this? Sorry, but all I've seen

Like, any plan to make the mips team totally poisoned by ciaranm's

OK, let me get this straight... You are suggesting here that we are not
losing enough developers for devrel/userrel to be bothered enough to
start caring about WTH is going wrong here?

Sure, after Flameeyes left we have pam + alsa pretty much unmaintained,
we've lost a key KDE + sound apps developer + BSD lead; next we've lost
metalgod who was a member of already pretty understaffed Gnome herd, one
of 3 members of media-optical herd and sounds apps maintainer as well.
Then a developer and founder of this distribution who rejoined just
about a week ago ran away, scared when seeing the state of things.
That's just for the past month.

And you come here to tell us that people shouldn't get confused by these
'very few' retirements, that the sun in still shining nicely and we are
recruiting people as always? And that you will continue silently
watching the trolls team associated around mips and ciaranm call people
fuckheads, idiots and making a gutter of something that's supposed to be
a development mailing list?

Ugh... well done.

Erm yes, you wanted bigger fonts on a front page, already said that
multiple times (plus everyone can read the bug). Noone removed any
credits from the doc itself, they were moved to a different place for
the reason I've stated above.

Stop this already, we've been thru this once and that's been really

Erm, to be precise here, noone has removed any ciaranm's attributions
from devmanual, they've all been moved to the end of the document
originally, so that people wouldn't be forced to scroll across one page
worth of contributors to get to the actual content of devmanual.

And of course this was a great occasion to start screaming about license
