In embedded development there are some usecases left for this codebase from the 1980s that implements protocols that were widely popular in the 1980s and early 1990s. Ancient code implementing obsolete ancient stuff is not fun to maintain. There are also two higher level topics that should be discussed: 1. Removal of maintainers.inc There is some nitpicking that every recipe needs a maintainer. For the package in question the maintainer is not involved in the discussion, and doesn't seem to have been asked for support or asked regarding the suggested removal. 2. Who is responsible for fixing gettext breakages in meta-oe? Alexander or Khem? > Ross cu Adrian -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
