Bug 218407 – sys-fs/udev-119: stable request

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Matthias Schwarzott 2008-04-19 13:18:58 UTC]

Please stable udev-119.

Compared to stable udev-115-r1 it fixes a lot of bugs.

More news: The used ruleset was merged with some other distros (redhat, suse, slackware).
This merge was started right after udev-115-r1 so basic parts should be fairly good tested right now.

Sorry but I don't think it can be qualified as stable, it freezes my gf's old laptop ( description: Notebook /  product: Satellite 2410 /  vendor: TOSHIBA /   version: PS241E-5J851-FR ).

I haven't checked what udev-120 does on it.

Are you sure that it is udev that is crashing, and not just some module being loaded by it that your hardware can not handle?

What specifically is the problem?

[Comment 5 cJ 2008-04-19 19:53:28 UTC]

hmm, I a drop-in replacement with the old one solved my freezing problem.
The modules are not loaded by udev, everything was loaded manually, but it may be my fault.
Sorry, I'm not at home at the moment, but I will investigate it further tonight.

ppc stable

[Comment 7 cJ 2008-04-20 22:48:33 UTC]

It is indeed module-related (coldplug="YES" with baselayout), but I don't know why, this doesn't happen with udev-115 with the same configuration.

I'm trying to debug it.

Stable for HPPA.

It's becoming quite a museum in there. Any chance of some ebuild spring cleaning? :)

I've cleaned up a few of them, more can be probably removed if needed.

I'm not sure if I should post this in the stablereq or not.

some of us are having problems. I don't think 119 is stable (and has been stabalized too soon).

Please open extra bugs for all issues you have.

[Comment 12 Markus Meier 2008-04-21 19:07:28 UTC]

amd64 stable

[Comment 13 Tobias Klausmann (RETIRED) 2008-04-22 16:27:49 UTC]

Stable on alpha.

[Comment 14 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) 2008-04-23 02:05:06 UTC]

mips doesn't do stable.

[Comment 15 Matthias Schwarzott 2008-11-06 09:28:38 UTC]

Closing, as all but mips added their stable keywords.
