Hi,
Just noticed yesterday an issue with the upgrade documentation in the news
regarding mysql 5.1 and revdep-rebuild.
It suggests running
# revdep-rebuild --library libmysqlclient.so.15
but this is not enough. mysql has more than one library and not all
applications link against the main lib.

Well, to their credit, you CAN'T stabilize a package if you can't test

Hello package maintainers,
most of the GNU packages had their LICENSE updated to GPL-3 along with
some minor bug fixes or even just documentation changes in recent
times. Please do check the LICENSE and adjust it if needed.
Oh, and one other thing. Attached is a list of ebuild that use
ftp.

No, because not all files that are available on ftp://ftp.gnu.org/ are
also on mirror
Hello developers,
this has annoyed me for a long time.
restore_config() dies when it cannot find a saved config file, while
later on in any ebuild that uses savedconfig.eclass, it will save the
config file anyhow. That means it will not use an edited saved config
file during the first emerge

While you're touching this, could you improve this part a bit:
# maybe the user is screwing around with perms they shouldnt #289168
if [[ ! -r ${base} ]] ; then
eerror "Unable to read ${base} -- perms are screwed ?"
die "fix your system"
fi
I understand frustration caused by weird things people

Why should "Science" be a sub-category of "Education"?
That doesn't make sense to me.

Hello everyone,
Here are some minor changes I'd like to propose to flag-o-matic's
_filter-var() to work properly with LDFLAGS.
Without this, things like "-Wl,-O1,--as-needed" won't be affected by any
kind of filter since there are no spaces to separate each flag.
I don't know of any better way to

This can be shortened to:

or even shorter:

I'm forking this thread from -core, so we can have some useful
discussion about the idea, and then somebody can take it to the
gentoo-dev list.
This needs a lot more polishing still, and I'm not happy with some of
the semantics (esp. "policy" is too harsh a word for what we are trying
to convey).
Hello!
As a proper solution to bug #306233 [1] I have prepared a draft for a
related glep-42-style [2] news item, my first such item ever. This is
my request for review.
If I don't hear anything for the next 72 hours I may put it online, as I
understand the GLEP. If you'd need more time for a

I'm planning to request the stabling of gentoo-sources-2.6.32 on March 5th,
a little more than 1 week from now. We have a few regressions we are
tracking but they are not far reaching and most are close to resolution. We
will follow up on all unresolved regressions.
