..since this is an half-year-old bugfix release which works better than the "stable" ones in portage, at least for me.
Not sure any Gentoo dev uses this anymore... but let's get it done.
ppc stable
I have been using the same version on amd64 for 3 months without problems, so I suggest it is stabilized on amd64 as well #emerge --info Portage 2.1-r2 (default-linux/amd64/2006.0, gcc-3.4.6/amd64-vanilla, glibc-2.3.6-r4, 2.6.16-g13 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.16-g13 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.15 distcc 2.18.3 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: 2.0.0_rc2-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5-r2, 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.3 dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r3 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe -msse3" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe -msse3" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo/" LANG="sv" LC_ALL="sv_FI@euro" LINGUAS="sv" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/overlay/portage-xgl /usr/local/overlay/portage-xgl" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X alsa avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth bzip2 cddb cdr cli crypt cups dlloader dri dvb dvd dvdr eds emboss encode exif fat ffmpeg flac foomaticdb fortran gif gpm gstreamer gtk2 imlib ipv6 isdnlog ithreads java jpeg kde lm_sensors lzw lzw-tiff mozilla mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin nvidia ogg opengl pam pcre pdflib perl png pppd python qt qt3 qt4 quicktime readline reflection reiserfs sdl session smp spell spl sse3 ssl tcpd threads tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts usb userlocales v4l v4l2 vorbis wmf x264 xmms xorg xpm xv xvid xvmc zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse kernel_linux linguas_sv userland_GNU video_cards_nvidia" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Here, too. On x86, I have used freevo 1.5.4 (thoroughly, and with many plugins), as long as it's been out. It is at least as stable as any previous version.
Well it emerges loads up and doesn't randomly crash. I'm just not going to hook up my hauppauge card to the dev box... thus x86 stable
emerges fine here on amd64, though i'm lacking the hardware to actually test it... emerge --info Portage 2.1-r2 (default-linux/amd64/2006.0, gcc-3.4.6, glibc-2.3.6-r4, 2.6.17-suspend2-r3-Dudebox-Edition x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.17-suspend2-r3-Dudebox-Edition x86_64 unknown Gentoo Base System version 1.6.15 ccache version 2.3 [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.3 dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r3 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe -msse3" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe -msse3" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache collision-protect distlocks metadata-transfer multilib-strict parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict test userfetch userpriv usersandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.wh2.tu-dresden.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo ftp://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/gentoo-mirror/ ftp:///ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/" LINGUAS="de" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://server/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X alsa apache2 arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts cli crypt cups dlloader dri eds emboss encode foomaticdb fortran gif gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 imlib ipv6 isdnlog jpeg kde kdeenablefinal lzw lzw-tiff mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nptl opengl pam pcre pdflib perl png pppd python qt3 qt4 quicktime readline reflection sdl session spell spl ssl tcpd tiff truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales xorg xpm xv zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse input_devices_evdev kernel_linux linguas_de userland_GNU video_cards_dummy" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, MAKEOPTS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
Stable on amd64, closing since we're the last arch.
