Please consider marking the latest 0.41-version stable. rockoo@gmail.com 2005-05-24 09:34:33 0000 media-gfx/inkscape-0.41 stable request - works fine overhere x86 for 1 months bryce@bryceharrington.org 2005-06-04 12:21:04 0000 What actions must be done to get Inkscape increased to 0.41? Is there something I can do to help achieve this? Are there problems that need to be resolved, or packaging that needs to be done? Inkscape 0.37 is ancient, and it's troubling that Gentoo is still using it, when other distros are at 0.40 and 0.41. 0.41 is *much* more stable than 0.37 and has a number of better features. A couple months ago I worked on getting all of the Gentoo bugs listed against Inkscape resolved, in hopes that would pave the way for moving from 0.37 to 0.41. Unfortunately, it still is at 0.37 even so. I'm willing to put in some time if needed. We're starting on preparations for the Inkscape 0.42 release, and I'd really like to get Gentoo up to at least 0.41, so if there are bugs to be fixed, or packaging to be done, or whatever, I'd be happy to help. sekretarz@gentoo.org 2005-06-05 02:27:37 0000 OK, we can push it into stable. Arch testers, please mark stable inkscape-0.41. corsair@gentoo.org 2005-06-05 05:07:37 0000 stable on ppc64. used 0.41 some weeks now. cryos@gentoo.org 2005-06-05 05:16:34 0000 Can't be keyworded stable as we only have media-gfx/pstoedit-3.40 keyworded (~amd64), and can't stabilise on that until the maintainer arch does. I have been using inkscape-0.41 for several weeks with no issues on amd64, but haven't been using the plugins very much as yet. bryce@bryceharrington.org 2005-06-05 08:55:56 0000 The plug-ins are optional requirements, so if the user does not have pstoedit installed, inkscape will still function properly, just with fewer features. Specifically, Adobe Illustrator output, and Postscript output. While the functionality pstoedit provides is important to many users, it's only loosely coupled to Inkscape, and can be upgraded completely independently. It's a run-time dependency detected by Inkscape on the fly rather than a link-time dependency. If the lack of a stable pstoedit is hindering making Inkscape 0.41 stable, you could remove it as a dependency for Inkscape. Then, if the user installs it independently, inkscape will pick it up. Later, when pstoedit does stabilize, you can re-add it as a dependency. bryce@bryceharrington.org 2005-06-05 09:02:23 0000 It looks like pstoedit 3.33 is stable - perhaps Inkscape could be made dependent on that version instead of 3.40? cryos@gentoo.org 2005-06-05 09:16:05 0000 I think you misundertand the problem slightly. Only media-gfx/pstoedit-3.40 has the ~amd64 keyword. All previous versions are totally untested on amd64, and so could not be stabilised. Once the maintainer marks 3.40 stable, I can go ahead and mark that stable on amd64 as there are no bugs I know about. Gentoo policy is that all deps for a stable package must be stable, and packages should usually have been in ~amd64 (or whatever testing branch) for at least one month before being stabilised. Removing pstoedit as a dep would allow me to mark inkscape-0.41 stable, or stabilising pstoedit-3.40. bryce@bryceharrington.org 2005-06-05 09:29:59 0000 Ah, I understand. But for stabilizing inkscape x86, this should not be an issue? cryos@gentoo.org 2005-06-05 11:01:19 0000 Totally unrelated - x86 and amd64 have different stable trees and their dep tree looks OK to stabilise inkscape. rockoo@gmail.com 2005-06-06 05:57:51 0000 made a stable request (bug #95295) for pstoedit-3.40 ... ppc64 already stablized it :) ... tester@gentoo.org 2005-06-08 17:57:54 0000 errr... there is a new patch in 0.41-r1 do you want use to mark that instead or wait ? sekretarz@gentoo.org 2005-06-09 07:12:25 0000 OK, 0.40-r1 is better idea. Sorry for the mistake. sekretarz@gentoo.org 2005-06-09 08:12:53 0000 amd64 done gustavoz@gentoo.org 2005-06-09 18:45:59 0000 media-gfx/pstoedit-4.30 is gone from the mirrors and SRC_URI. The homepage has a new URL but the new file has a different md5 & size... gustavoz@gentoo.org 2005-06-10 05:53:10 0000 0.40-r1 stable on sparc. for 0.41* to go stable i need pstoedit and 30 days to pass by on ~sparc. josejx@gentoo.org 2005-06-10 09:28:04 0000 Marked ppc stable. corsair@gentoo.org 2005-06-11 03:30:17 0000 stable on ppc64 yannek@web.de 2005-06-20 09:24:27 0000 The last missing dependency for x86 should have been bumped to stable by bug #96400. bryce@bryceharrington.org 2005-07-02 14:19:54 0000 Can someone move Inkscape 0.41 to stable? It's marked stable for 4 other archs, and bug 95205 that this was dependant was resolved a couple weeks ago. zypher@gentoo.org 2005-07-05 01:36:04 0000 Version 0.41-r1 marked stable. Thanks for your patience, I'll try to keep up a bit better next time ;) Cheers, Marc.
