it's not so fast to retrieve informations on how to build the needed
kernel, could someone post instruction here, also for future
reference?

[gentoo-dev] eclipse-ecj is broken and slows down arch testing / stabilizations

[Paweł Hajdan, Jr.]

Please take a look at  .

checking if /usr/bin/ecj works... configure: error: The Java compiler
/usr/bin/ecj failed (see config.log, check the CLASSPATH?)
 * ERROR: dev-java/gnu-classpath-0.98-r3 failed (configure phase):
 *   configure failed

# eselect ecj list
Available ECJ targets:
  [1]   ecj-3.5
# eselect ecj set 1
!!! Warning: Can't set a new ecj provider. There's a file in the way at
/usr/share/eclipse-ecj/ecj.jar. You can try removing it manually, and then
re-running this command.
# rm /usr/share/eclipse-ecj/ecj.jar
# eselect ecj set 1
#

Is there some chance of getting this fixed? This happens on stable x86
system.

This does not look like a news item, but more like a project status
update or blog post. Probably it's much better to create webpage (or
news item) on www.gentoo.org and add elog/ewarn to point there. Once
mythtv team changes this information may change, but all users will see
it anyway.

[gentoo-dev] key signing at SCALE 2012

[Mike Frysinger]

anyone who is going to be at SCALE 2012 should send me their gpg fingerprint:
gpg --fingerprint 

so in my case, it'd be:
gpg --fingerprint E837F581

i'll take care of the rest (and post follow up details as we get closer)

note: anyone can join the signing party here ... you don't have to be a Gentoo

not there yet, I was looking for this:

git clone https://github.com/hjl-tools/linux.git
git checkout hjl/x32/lfs/v3.1

when it will be finished I'll mess with the defaults
