Description Steve Arnold archtester gentoo-dev 2005-02-05 18:47:36 UTC
It looks like we're a little behind here...  Apparently, the old gnuplot release and development branches were 3.7x and 3.8x (why, I have no idea) and the current 
ones are 4.0x and 4.1x (we have an arch-dependent mixture of 3.8 and 4.0, which 
doesn't really fit well with portage's idea of versions).  Anyway, I recommend 
the following:

1) Stablize all arches on 4.0 (I'm about to bump 4.0-r1 to x86 and amd64, and 
wormo is about to keyword it ~ppc).

2) Drop the 4.0 ebuild, as it doesn't add anything.

3) Drop 3.8 as soon as the remaining arches are ~arch on 4.0x.

4) Add a 4.1 ebuild to ~arch soon.

The current situation is this:

3.8j: KEYWORDS="x86 ppc ~sparc alpha amd64 ia64 ppc64 ~ppc-macos"

3.8j-r1: KEYWORDS="-x86 -ppc -sparc -alpha amd64 -ia64"

4.0: KEYWORDS="~x86 ~amd64"

4.0-r1: KEYWORDS="~x86 ~amd64 ~sparc ~ppc-macos ~ppc64"

So it looks to me like 4.0 can go away, as 4.0-r1 is a superset of both 
keywords and use flags.  If some kind folks can get ~alpha and ~ia64 marked 
on 4.0-r1 (or higher) then I can clean up the 3.8 stuff.

And maybe someone can explain the 3.8j-r1 significance to amd64?

Thanks in advance for your support :)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:



Expected Results:  
4.0x should be stable and 4.1x should be testing/development...

oops, minor typo...
Comment 2 Steve Arnold archtester gentoo-dev 2005-05-28 18:12:44 UTC
Still waiting for 4.1 to be released...

I guess when that happens, I can clean up the older ones.  Thanks.
