Description Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-01-06 17:57:38 UTC
Please mark eternal-lands-data-1.8.0-r1.ebuild stable.
Comment 1 Richard Freeman gentoo-dev 2010-01-06 18:40:36 UTC
I'd advise caution with this.  The package is certainly what I'd consider a stable candidate, but the upstream server releases new versions without much warning.  When that happens, this version of the game will stop working IMMEDIATELY, and I'll add a new ~arch version of this ebuild.  I could leave the old ones in portage, but they won't work anyway.

So, stable users will need to still keyword this package when that happens.

For that reason, traditionally we have not stabilized this.  I'm open to thoughts/comments/suggestions.  I can stable this on amd64 myself easily enough...

I am totally against stabilising such a package.
Comment 3 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-01-06 19:36:05 UTC
I'll add these to my ignore list.
