Bug 131857 – test and stablize tiff-3.8.2-r1 (due 26 July or sooner...)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Steve Arnold 2006-04-30 20:05:22 UTC]

I guess tiff has been left stale for a while (sorry) with the last two versions (3.7.3 and 3.7.4) left as stable/unstable for several months.  The latest stable upstream release is now 3.8.2, and there are some fixes that should be applied (see bug 131602 for the link to the upstream bug).

I've propagated the arch's from the previous version (3.7.4) to 3.8.2, and marked stable the ones I have handy (3.7.4 should have been stablized long ago).  The new libtiff 3.8.2 ebuild checks out okay so far on my 4 arch's, so I'd like to get it tested and stablized over the next few weeks (possible future bugs permitting).

Thanks.

Bump for feedback (only a week to go...)

[Comment 2 Jason Wever (RETIRED) 2006-05-22 21:33:22 UTC]

All tests passed, and cups built fine against it.  Stable on the SPARCenstein.

[Comment 3 Joe Jezak (RETIRED) 2006-05-25 17:36:46 UTC]

Looks fine on ppc, marked ppc stable.

[Comment 4 Markus Rothe (RETIRED) 2006-05-26 03:54:14 UTC]

stable on ppc64

Alpha done wrt bug #129675.

[Comment 6 Steve Arnold 2006-06-03 10:24:08 UTC]

Any chance of getting the remaining arches stablized?  The recent security bug is now closed...  Thanks.

[Comment 7 Steve Arnold 2006-06-27 20:29:18 UTC]

Sorry to do this (I started this bug before the security issues came up) but we could use another round of arch testing on the new tiff ebuild; it applies several patches, including the new JBIG support from the upstream CVS, so I think it deserves some testing (in fact, the security team may want it stablized sooner).  Thanks again...

If it is a security fix, then I would say it should be "due" on June 30th, before my snapshot for 2006.1... ;]

[Comment 9 Jules Gagnon 2006-06-29 10:23:13 UTC]

I installed tiff-3.8.2-r1 and recompiled gimp-2.2.8-r1 with tiff USE flag on x86 and I was able to load, edit and save tiff image.

[Comment 10 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) 2006-06-29 12:28:18 UTC]

amd64 and x86 done... that's two arches for the price of one... ;]

[Comment 11 Gustavo Zacarias (RETIRED) 2006-06-29 12:39:27 UTC]

sparc stable.

[Comment 12 Markus Rothe (RETIRED) 2006-06-30 00:32:49 UTC]

stable on ppc64

[Comment 13 Lars Weiler (RETIRED) 2006-07-02 09:36:12 UTC]

tiff-3.8.2-r1 stable on ppc.

[Comment 14 Mike Hlavac 2006-07-02 19:53:11 UTC]

All tests pass on alpha for -r1.  Was also able to manipulate a tiff image with no problems in gimp as well as convert to postscript (tiff2ps), pdf (tiff2pdf) and convert a bitmap to tiff (bmp2tiff)

[Comment 15 Thomas Cort (RETIRED) 2006-07-02 20:44:05 UTC]

alpha stable.

[Comment 16 Steve Arnold 2006-08-04 20:27:34 UTC]

Closing, since we just bumped a security patch last night...
