Hey, Since luajit is not willing to release 2.1 as a stable branch i think this makes sense to have 9999 ebuild for luajit
The bug has been referenced in the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=167d7633fec9eb8606255ca3e75429348c4a0320 commit 167d7633fec9eb8606255ca3e75429348c4a0320 Author: Artemis Everfree <artemis@artemis.sh> AuthorDate: 2024-11-12 22:47:01 +0000 Commit: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2024-11-13 05:07:58 +0000 dev-lang/luajit: add 2.1.9999999999 This addresses the -9999 request in #843773. Currently, upstream pushes all changes to the v2.1 branch. Per http://luajit.org/status.html, > The old git master branch is phased out and stays pinned > to the v2.0 branch. Please follow the versioned branches > instead. I think that tracking v2.1 is in the spirit of the original request; most people interested in this ebuild will want to have the latest rolling commit of v2.1, and will not want to suddenly be switched to a new incompatible version of luajit. To be consistent, I've versioned it 2.1.9999999999 so we can create a 2.2.9999999999 or 3.0.9999999999 if the time comes. I've included enough nines that we should be good for the next hundred or so years ;) Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/843773 Signed-off-by: Artemis Everfree <artemis@artemis.sh> Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/39293 Signed-off-by: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> dev-lang/luajit/luajit-2.1.9999999999.ebuild | 79 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 79 insertions(+)
