Unfortunately this mess you see here arose. The following then occured: Halyc0n notified me of the gcpan directory, and a few other ebuilds that were problematic. I fixed the mentioned ones, and looked at package.gentoo.org to make sure I hadn't missed anything. ferringb notified me of the branch issue shortly afterwards, to which I was called to #gentoo-infra and discussed the issue with Ramareth, ferringb, and Halyc0n. The branch fixing looked fairly easy, and there didn't seem to be any outstanding occuring that would cause me to believe the problem was that severe. I kept an eye on #gentoo-bugs till about 4AM or so fixing any bugs that appeared to be something that was caused by the situation. Notification by Mr_Bones_ and Anarchy on other packages I missed. Those were fixed as I noticed them. tomk notified me to cleanout my entire local cvs directory, I did so. I was notified about the ja/en.txt files by Flameeyes, but wanted to ask a cvs admin for removal, as they exist in the toplevel cvs, and I didn't feel comfortable commiting something at that level (same with the perl-gcpan directory), and would rather take the better approach at that. The admlogger tarball I didn't realize about and it looks to be missing (if I did miss it, feel free to open a seperate bug and I'll fix it). Since I will most likely be asked a "Why should we keep you" question (I assume judging from the tone of the last comment it's just that), I'll present the following (these are for the time period before this event): - Before the event, I do not recall a time that a QA member has approached me with a repoman issue. - I helped to increase the number of x86 markings and security turnarounds for the x86 herd (Feel free to ask Halyc0n) - I helped to collaborate with mcummings and address the need for ebuild bumps - The actions during the event were not intentional (I have the feeling some people believe they were?). No, I didn't feel good at all about what happened. - Tested the entire of KDE, every single app and provided patches in some instances - Helped gustavoz with narrowing down on a missing patch that was causing touch to create files with invalid dates, important enough to have a new kernel rolled out That is all, if supenssion is the end result, I propose 60 days. Appoligies to all that were effected (users and devs), and expecially to infra for the work they had to do because of it. plasmaroo@gentoo.org 2005-12-02 13:47:39 0000 > * branching the whole of gentoo-x86 with a new 'chris' branch Our friendly infra monkeys have now dealt with this issue or so I'm told. kingtaco@gentoo.org 2005-12-02 13:50:05 0000 (In reply to comment #3) > To explain the situation, I was testing kde program (cervisa) by doing a cvs > checkout of the tree.

You fucked up(rather badly), when people pointed it out to you, you did what you could to correct it, and then apoligized. You should review the developer handbook for the proper way to commit to the tree. ciaran.mccreesh@googlemail.com 2005-12-02 14:03:58 0000 If this were the first time that Chris had done something silly and ended up breaking things through sheer carelessness, I wouldn't've reopened the bug. halcy0n@gentoo.org 2005-12-12 18:13:49 0000 Yes, he has been doing a lot to help out, but I was unaware he was only committing most of KDE-3.4.3 to stable. He said he was going to handle this the other day, but our users have been having fun with packages upgrading and downgrading because of packages still being ~x86 (this is bug #115357 for reference). He also missed one package in the monolithic KDE packages that completely broke the dep tree for users. Also, there is still a tag, "start", in the tree that he created. kingtaco@gentoo.org 2006-01-06 10:11:37 0000 should be devrel vapier@gentoo.org 2006-02-28 20:54:19 0000 any reason this is closed ? i dont think there is ... vapier@gentoo.org 2006-03-01 16:11:14 0000 closing again christel@gentoo.org 2006-04-02 09:00:16 0000 Hi, As ChrisWhite is the #gentoo ops liasion for user-relations I would like him added to the user-relations alias please. kloeri@gentoo.org 2006-05-08 09:53:27 0000 Added a while ago, closing. kloeri@gentoo.org 2006-06-17 08:43:52 0000 Chris recently announced his resignation.
