Ah okay; nevermind then, my concern didn't take that into account. I like this technique because it allows us to build catalyst stages based on stable packages while keeping the entire arch exp. Eg. with mips, I have to build catalyst stages with KEYWORDS=mips ~mips. I'm always on the bleeding edge of the latest packages committed to the tree. Sometimes these builds fail because the ~arch edge is not well tested for consistency and I have to resort to masking. It nicer to just build on KEYWORDS=mips and then just stabilize the versions that are known to work. -- Anthony G.

[gentoo-dev] ARM64 stable keyword
I see that vapier has been adding arm64 as a stable keyword to lots of packages. When I am requesting stabilization for newer versions these packages, is there an arm64 arch team I should copy? If not, these stable keywords are just going to get lost as old ebuilds get dropped. For an example, see my last commit to dev-util/scons. I moved the stable keyword forward from scons-2.2.0 to scons-2.3.0 myself, but I am not sure if this was the right thing to do.

You should not add this, only vapier and probably armin76 have arm64 hardware (hardware?). Mike stabilize for minor arches if needed. (like sh/s390/m68k).

Stabilizing on minor arches this way feels more like a regression, than that it is an improvement; the promise for a stable experience can't be fulfilled like that. Searching for broken packages and/or versions and masking them on the architecture in question could work out better; you spare out time because you only monitor new versions in general, as well as attempt to discover breakage instead of discovering stability. -- With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : tom...@gentoo.org GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D
