Other arches, please do the same when marking gentoo-sources 2.6.16 stable. corsair@gentoo.org 2006-04-22 23:07:31 0000 stable on ppc64 josejx@gentoo.org 2006-04-30 19:52:55 0000 Marked ppc stable. gustavoz@gentoo.org 2006-05-02 10:39:56 0000 sparc stable since 2.4.32-sparc-r4 has squash3 (and gs-2.6.16-r4+ went ~sparc). wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2006-05-09 14:17:24 0000 Stable on amd64 nunomilheiro@gmail.com 2006-05-10 03:43:03 0000 It seems that ther are some problems with the squashfs 3.0 As we can see in squashfs bugs page : http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1454647&group_id=63835&atid=505341 In three of my gentoo system where I use squashfs with unionfs to save space and I/O, i experience the same bug with gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r3 so I reverted to squashfs 2.1 wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2006-05-10 05:49:49 0000 I have built *several* CD images on multiple architectures now, using squashfs 3.0 and squashfs-tools 3.0 and had no issues. Perhaps some more information (preferably on a separate bug) would be in order, since I cannot reproduce this on any platform I've tested it on so far. philantrop@gentoo.org 2006-07-22 08:57:34 0000 According to http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3464655.html#3464655 and http://www.mail-archive.com/gentoo-catalyst@lists.gentoo.org/msg00163.html sys-fs/squashfs-tools-3.0 need a kernel >= 2.6.16. Shouldn't there be an appropriate RDEPEND in the ebuild before stablising it? (Yes, I've read the summary but I thought this should have been implemented before the stabilisation request?) wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2006-07-24 08:06:26 0000 Nope. See, squashfs-tools doesn't require *any* kernel version to run. It will happily build a squashfs image no matter what your kernel version happens to be. In fact, it'll even create an image if your kernel doesn't have squashfs support. Now, being able to decompress that image in the kernel is completely independent of this bug, and is what you seem to be pointing to as a problem. Anyway, the dependencies are correct. wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2006-08-08 09:19:06 0000 Well, arm and ia64 are already stable. Alpha/HPPA, please test this. All you need to do is verify that it can create a proper squashfs image, since this is just the userland portion. armin76@gentoo.org 2006-09-05 05:19:57 0000 hppa done wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2007-02-14 00:30:48 0000 Alpha has a higher version stable now, so marking RESOLVED.
