Description Matthieu Sozeau (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-21 15:00:04 UTC 
I'd like you guys to try to stabilize ocaml-3.08.4 on all arches asap. It is a  
bugfix release from 3.08.3 which is still marked unstable on sparc, hppa and  
amd64. A good test is to emerge coq with USE=gtk2 to get the gtk2 bindings  
built too, then running some `lablgtk2` examples as the ebuild suggest or  
`coqide`. I already rebuilt all ocaml packages on x86 with the new compiler 
with approximately no problem.  

Reproducible: Always

Please elaborate on why you feel we need to circumvent the regular release
process for this package (considering it hasn't even been in the tree for 24
hours yet).  Are these bugs show stoppers?  Is there some security issue?
Comment 2 Matthieu Sozeau (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-22 01:49:19 UTC 
The goal is to get rid of 08.3 and have 08.4 stable everywhere. The easiest  
solution is to first stabilize 08.3 quickly (mldonkey needs it to stabilize)  
and then follow the usual process, but 08.4 has also some serious bugs fixed 
(they're not showstoppers for what we have in portage but could be for users), 
so...
Comment 3 Josh Grebe (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-22 04:51:20 UTC 
We don't have mldonkey keyworded sparc OR ~sparc, so I don't see how the sparc   
team has any motivation to break from the normal process.
Comment 4 Jason Wever (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-26 19:54:44 UTC 
3.08.3 is now stable on SPARC.
Comment 5 Jason Wever (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-11-08 18:28:03 UTC 
3.08.4 is now stable on SPARC.
Comment 6 Marcus D. Hanwell (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-12-21 06:43:29 UTC 
Stable on amd64.
Comment 7 René Nussbaumer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-01-03 23:29:37 UTC 
Allready marked stable. Remove CC for hppa.
Comment 8 spiralvoice 2006-06-06 14:12:26 UTC 
What about making Ocaml 3.09.2 stable on x86?
Comment 9 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-09-05 11:03:06 UTC 
Matthieu, want x86 to stabilize this? if not, close the bug.
Comment 10 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-03-11 15:54:16 UTC 
3.08.4 or newer stable everywhere, closing a stale bug.
