[Description Gert Pellin 2015-09-23 19:57:32 UTC]

I would like to file a stabilisation request for dev-util/idea-ultimate/idea-ultimate-14.1.4.141.1532.4

Reproducible: Always

Arch teams, please proceed.

[Comment 2 Patrice Clement 2015-10-04 21:02:44 UTC]

Oops, sorry.

To Java team, maintainers of dev-util/idea-ultimate: I don't know how do you, guys, use IDEA, but I'm tired of masking every single damn "*_pre" version. Either remove the keywords from non-EAP (_pre) versions or introduce slotting. Oh, right, slotting gives another problem (#561210). Any other solutions?

[Comment 4 James Le Cuirot 2015-10-19 10:15:05 UTC]

I'm really not interested in this package but do we really need all these pre versions? Let's either remove or package.mask them.

s/non-//

I've got another idea: there are packages like www-client/google-chrome-beta, www-client/opera-beta, www-client/opera-developer. Same could be done to IDEA.

I see several possible solutions:

1) Mark release versions as stable and mark _pre versions as unstable;
2) Set KEYWORDS="" for _pre versions;
3) package.mask them;
4) Separate them into discrete package (e.g. dev-util/idea-ultimate-eap);
5) Simply remove them.
