I've had to mask 1.1.91*, as I use herdstat in all kinds of scripts, and it makes it just unusable. dev-zero@gentoo.org 2007-04-01 19:44:43 0000 @compnerd: What is going on with herdstat? Is this a work in progress? Please add some status infos or write me a mail. halcy0n@gentoo.org 2007-11-03 02:53:52 0000 There is basically no upstream for this package anymore, unless someone volunteers. I'd recommend for tree-cleaners to look into wiping this out of the tree. There are several open bugs: http://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=herdstat halcy0n@gentoo.org 2007-11-03 20:12:26 0000 Helps if I CC them... jakub@gentoo.org 2007-11-03 22:04:06 0000 Uh, punting this is not a viable solution, developers are using this thing frequently, including myself. This 1.1.91 rewrite is screwed, 1.1.2 version is perfectly usable after fixing a couple of minor issues either manually or in the ebuild. dang@gentoo.org 2007-11-04 18:33:17 0000 I agree... I use this extensively in my scripts, and would be very sorry to see it go. halcy0n@gentoo.org 2007-11-23 06:54:08 0000 Well, something needs to happen with this package. Either punt the new stuff, or fix the old stuff. There are a bunch of bugs open for this for quite some time now. compnerd: opinions? halcy0n@gentoo.org 2008-01-19 22:36:41 0000 Is anyone strongly against punting 1.1.91 out of the tree? Its known broken, and probably isn't ever going to be fixed. jakub@gentoo.org 2008-01-19 23:37:48 0000 Nah, just kill it, thanks. :) dirtyepic@gentoo.org 2008-01-19 23:55:25 0000 yup, kill it halcy0n@gentoo.org 2008-01-20 02:03:35 0000 Punted. dirtyepic@gentoo.org 2008-01-30 02:07:31 0000 We also need to kick dev-cpp/libherdstat-0.2.0. herdstat-1.1.2 won't build against it and it's causing an up/downgrade cycle. armin76@gentoo.org 2008-01-30 14:57:31 0000 Removed
