Hello
Every day I am hitting tons of blockers stabilizations and keywording
requests for alpha, sparc, ia64, ppc and ppc64.
The powerpc team figured we'd deal with this by being "lax" about
keywording/stabilization and catch problems in subsequent bug reports to
increase our throughput. We didn't want to drop the entire arch to ~.
The team hasn't met since last august, and we should discuss this
again. But we decided then that ago would do stabilization and the rest
of us would do keywording.
As far as I'm concerned, I'm happy to drop all desktop-ish packages to
~arch, but keep the more server-ish, system-ish packages as stable.
Controlling @system with stable keywords is very useful for building
stages so I'm reluctant to give that up. So maybe we can just adopt the
policy that any ppc/ppc64 package which depends on X can be dropped to ~.
Thanks a lot for your help
No problem. Can you categorize where most of the blockers are coming
from? Are they mostly desktop?
Comments from other ppc people?
