Sounds great, I'd like to use it for my Briegel buildsystem (not Gentoo related, somewhat similar to portage, but more for embedded targets) running mass-buildtests. cu -- -- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 -- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme --

For example, I'd like to have the critical packages (everything that's needed to bootup and do basic remote maintenance) from the new frozen-stable tree, but other things should stay as they are. cu -- -- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 -- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme --

Well, I often have cases where the stable tree breaks something or requires deeper manual intervention. That doesn't make fun when maintaining dozens of systems. So a more-stable tree (hmm, perhaps call it 'mature' ;-)) would be a big win. I could also imagine doing that on per-package basis. Lets say, somehow automatically export the last time of unresolved bugs per ebuild to some sane place in the portage tree (eg. some new file in the per-package subdirs) so people could script up something that automatically maintains package.mask ? cu -- -- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ phone: +49 36207 519931 email: weig...@metux.de mobile: +49 151 27565287 icq: 210169427 skype: nekrad666 -- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme --

I've automatized even a bit more: my cron script also automatically rebuilds the packages I have explicitly whitelisted in my /etc/portage/package.autoupdate file.

[gentoo-dev] Rewrite java-config in C++ or python
Hi dev, I am Uditha Galgamuwa from university of moratuwa,Sri Lanka.I am interested in the project idea "Rewrite java-config in C++ or python" which was in last year Gsoc.As I saw this project has not been implemented in Gsoc 2010.Will this be available for this year's idea list from Gentoo foundation? I have good knowledge on programming with java and some knowledge on C++ and a basic understanding about XSLT as well. Thank you very much Uditha.
