Description SpanKY gentoo-dev 2004-11-22 18:12:39 UTC
ebuild should also be updated to use the mount-boot eclass and install files into /boot/ instead of making the user figure out how to do it :)

colo 1.16 was put into the tree (~mips) some time back, but I haven't had a chance to test it as yet.

I certainly will look into updating the ebuild, but bear with me, as I've got loads of uni stuff at the moment, and I'm still a learner at this stage. :-)

colo-1.19.ebuild

Okay... attached is the colo-1.19.ebuild, that I'm about to commit.  Can a dev
just quickly look over it and make sure everything is in shape before I commit
it?  (I don't want to go breaking the tree ;-), now, it's repoman scan, then
repoman commit right?)

Also, what do people say to me marking v1.16 as stable?  I've tested it here...
the only issue I see is that the 'menu' command (mentioned in the Handbook) has
been replaced by 'select'.  I of course, will be putting a patch up to update
the Handbook shortly.  There's a comment in the ebuild saying the syntax has
changed (actually shown upon installation).
Comment 3 Stuart Longland (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-09 04:22:29 UTC
Okay, I've marked 1.16 stable... I haven't, as yet, looked into automatic
installation of colo into /boot, as I feel the user should do this manually when
he/she feels it is safe to do so.

A happy comprimise may be to have a local-use flag to control this behaviour. 
That, to me would be the best way forward. :-)

Anyways, for the moment though, this issue is fixed.  I'll probably take 1.13
out of the tree in the next week or so.
