See depending bugs.

This is not ready for stable yet, It does not make use of proper libxul when building nsplugin. This results in revdep-rebuild rebuilding vlc each and every time.

Strike my last, I found the issue, it is gonna be system specific. Sorry for the noise.

What about libxcb >= 1.4 and schroedinger?

 Remi?

I take it you'd like to know when libxcb has a chance of going stable? :)

Soon, like along with xorg-server 1.6. So now that the livedvd is around, I'll try to take care of that after the dvd is released.

So you might be interested in bug #282290 to see where we're at. In short, we're nearly ready. We just need to fix 2 or 3 eselect-opengl bugs and start asking for testers through planet.g.o.

Hope that sheds some light on where we're at :)

Cheers

Why does it need libxcb-1.1.90.1 ? And can libxcb-1.1.90.1 go stable without the rest of X?

NAK, it's either the current stable or 1.4. Versions in between cause locking bugs with Xlib.

[Comment 9 Alexis Ballier 2009-09-15 21:02:08 UTC]

after all it was simpler than that... there was a patch in master to support older xcb-xv versions, so now we dont need newer xcb than what stable has.

[Comment 10 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2009-09-16 13:42:40 UTC]

Ok, schroedinger wants Gstreamer 1.0.24 (which is not stable)....

Is that ok?

Might be, but let me emphatize that it isn't required. You can go with 1.0.7 instead of 1.0.7 -r1 or -r2. The only difference is GStreamer compability patches.

 Ok, I misread the DEPEND line, but nonetheless, it would be better to do both together to not have problems when Gstreaner 1.0.24 goes stable and nobody thinks of schroedinger.

[Comment 13 Alexis Ballier 2009-09-20 10:10:07 UTC]

we'll handle stabilization of 1.0.2 in bug #285370
