![]() erm, failure to build with a masked autoconf and a force as-needed is hardly a grant to remove a package from my pov. beast upstream is still active even if no release was seen in the past months, they do fix bugs in their repository and track their bugs at bugzilla.

Clarifying. It doesn't work with GLIBC 2.10+, GCC 4.4+ and ~arch version of Guile. I last remember this was working with GCC 4.3.3 and a older Guile.

Okay, there is no seriously no reason for this to be masked. We have an active upstream and people use this package. Just because it doesn't work for you is no reason to remove it from the tree. A package does NOT have to build with the latest and greatest unstable toolchain for it to be in the tree. There are people on stable that have no problem running it. If it doesn't work in ~arch then that's something to fix, not throw it away. It's useless at the moment for ~arch users and we don't have a feature called "Mask it only for ~arch users.". The package.mask is there to tell there's something wrong with the package and I've assigned this to treecleaners to get more attention for it. If you take a look at the metadata.xml you'll realize I'm one of the maintainers, as member of sound team, and I'm saying we won't be fixing this. then why is it going through treecleaner at all? maintainers can remove their packages themselves, for whatever reason they want, at any time they want. treecleaner is supposed to handle maintainer-needed packages only. we don't remove packages with users and active upstreams. we're supposed to vote on this stuff. none of this is true here. if you want to remove things, then more power to you, but it shouldn't be done as a treecleaner bug. I don't understand the noise here, we have 3 developers commenting which each has CVS access. Why not spend your time adding the new snapshot (or version) in tree instead? It would be much more productive. Maybe we don't like our arms twisted to do it immediately now because you have p.masked it, when it works just fine on _stable tree_ systems, and a release is coming from upstream soon enough for these bleeding edge @system compatibility things to be fixed in a normal course... No problem. Removed from tree as planned. |
