Rerating B3 for DoS.
Comment 3 Antek GrzymaƂa (antoszka) 2010-03-10 09:50:32 UTC
Can't see a 2.1.3 release. Does that mean that it's only a planned release, and currently the code is fixed only in git currently? This will probably need some bumping in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=281366

Hi Guys,

Is there any chance that this would be marked stable soon?

Thank you,
Comment 6 Mounir Lamouri (volkmar) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-04-10 14:18:20 UTC
We should bump to 2.1.3 ASAP, bug 281366.
Comment 7 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-06-21 08:02:53 UTC
Ok, I've bumped and just unmasked 2.1.4 in tree. A week from now if nothing pops up it'll be ok to start stabilization.
Comment 8 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-07-01 13:35:55 UTC
arch teams, please, stabilize net-im/ejabberd-2.1.4.
Comment 9 Dane Smith (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-07-01 13:46:16 UTC
x86: Just a heads up, this is dependent on the ~x86 package shadow-4.1.4.2-r3.

Comment 10 Dane Smith (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-07-01 14:28:58 UTC
x86: Compiles fine. No errors on running. I *think* its running alright, but I don't know a ton about jabber.
Comment 11 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-07-03 08:09:17 UTC
stable x86, thanks Dane
Comment 12 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2010-07-10 00:47:42 UTC
shadow-4.1.4.2-r3 has a small regression that no one noticed until it went stable.  ive added shadow-4.1.4.2-r4 with the small fix.
Comment 13 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-07-10 15:35:15 UTC
x86 done again
Comment 14 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-07-12 17:34:51 UTC
