Description Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2014-07-24 07:51:27 UTC
mgorny bumped lib-compat making this unneeded, I think we could treeclean this then. But I am not sure if we would need to stabilize latest lib-compat (all this stuff was hardmasked due security reasons)

Either that, or drop all its reverse dependencies to unstable. I don't think that we have a policy for this sort of situation. Stabilising lib-compat and lib-compat-loki would be easier, but do we want them in stable?
Comment 2 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2014-09-06 20:14:25 UTC
I've discussed this with the QA lead. Stabilising a masked package seems pointless, therefore I'll drop lib-compat and its reverse dependencies (which are all package.masked already) to unstable. CCing maintainers.

Done.
Comment 4 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2014-09-08 17:23:33 UTC
All reverse dependencies fixed:
http://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/genrdeps/rindex/app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-compat

So emul-linux-x86-compat can be masked for removal.
