Description ernsteiswuerfel archtester 2017-07-30 17:53:42 UTC
I have been using gparted quite extensively lately for various backups (ext4, xfs, btrfs). Running fine on ppc64/32ul. Could go stable IMHO.
Comment 1 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2017-07-31 15:38:51 UTC
0.27.0 is already stable on other arches. Do you mean that you want it to be keyworded for ppc64 ?
Comment 2 ernsteiswuerfel archtester 2017-07-31 15:56:03 UTC
Yes, But for ppc 32bit not ppc64. I have been running it on the G5 with 64bit kernel, 32bit userland.
Comment 3 ernsteiswuerfel archtester 2017-07-31 16:19:44 UTC
Erm, I mean stabilized for ppc, not keyworded for ppc64.
Comment 4 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2017-07-31 22:56:25 UTC
Are eva@ and gnome@ fine if we stable gparted for ppc?
Target keywords:
    =sys-block/gparted-0.27.0 ppc
Comment 5 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2017-08-02 16:39:48 UTC
Personally I would try to keep "gnome related" stable tree as "small" as currently... It was a huge effort the one that was needed to try to reduce stable trees of "exotic" arches to not delay stable requests forever... hence, making them grow again doesn't look too future proof to me :/
Comment 6 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2017-08-02 20:28:42 UTC
Sounds fair.

Does gnome@ have a wiki page describing current keywording policy by chance?
Comment 7 Mart Raudsepp gentoo-dev 2017-08-02 21:02:47 UTC
I personally wouldn't mind if the arch team in question can keep up with stablereq's in the future, especially if there would be actual users of it on the architecture. Can always de-stabilize more aggressively in the past if you start slacking :P
