Duplicate of bug 765796 right? (which we can’t yet move forward with)
Comment 2 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2021-02-05 10:32:00 UTC
No, it should not be directly related.

I personally don't plan to backport security fixes to older erlang branches. That means removal (or masking) of vulnerable erlang versions would require porting all revdeps to newer version. I think we only have rabbitmq-server left (bug #755236). We are not there yet.

But rabbitmq-server should not block stabilization of newer erlang versions if they are ready.

We usually do stabilisation in the same bug, but cleanup would then be blocked on sorting out revdeps. But I'll just block the bug on this one
