Many times I see bugs filed with seemingly minor changes being asked for. A good example is bug #173884 which is a completely valid request. The change is simple, removing "insinto /etc/env.d ; doins $somefile" and replacing it with "doenvd $somefile" instead. Now, this is something that *anyone* with commit access should feel comfortable doing to *anyone's* packages without fear of being attacked for touching someone else's packages. I wish we could have a list stating which package you have to contact its maintainer first (and the reason why if possible), or add tag in metadata.xml to warn people. The rest of the tree will be free land (unless you break the tree of course) -- Duy -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list

I still want some system-wide themes (think about lock-down desktop). A g-cpan for themes with a separate theme metadata repository might save some the tree space. -- Duy -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-dev] [RFC] i18n project
On 6/10/06, Jan Kundrát <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: So, let's rephrase it a bit. The following items represent my view about the i18n team's responsibilities: a) Translation of metadata.xml stuff in our tree (Is there any method to keep them up-to-date when the English text changes? Something like "revision" attribute that gets bumped when the English text gets updated?) Keep only English in metadata.xml. Using tools such as intltool or xml2po to extract strings and let i18n translate/maintain .po files themselves. Generated .mo files will be included in metadata directory when rsycing. Another portage hack to use .mo files in metadata directory instead of plain English if locale variables is not C. But that's just part of the problem. What about strings inside ebuild? -- Bi Cờ Lao -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list

I prefer git too. However has anyone tried git with the current tree? Some practical numbers would be appreciated. -- Bi Cờ Lao -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
