Bug 150392 – stabilize net-dialup/slmodem-2.9.11_pre20051101-r2

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description CPUShare 2006-10-07 09:30:54 UTC]

net-dialup/slmodem-2.9.11_pre20051101-r2 compiles fine, so my suggestion is to mark it as stable (to obsolete the current stable ebuild that doesn't compile as shown below).

hmm... correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't gentoo-sources-2.6.18 marked as testing?
right now, slmodem-2.9.11_pre20051101-r2 is in the probation period (one month without any change).

[Comment 2 Stefan Schweizer (RETIRED) 2006-10-07 10:48:20 UTC]

x86: please stablize

We want these fixed before 2.6.18 goes stable. So it is a good time to start now. Important fixes like this one justify to stabilze earlier.

[Comment 3 Markus Meier 2006-10-08 04:40:06 UTC]

1.) emerges fine on x86
2.) passes collision test
3.) should work (using it on my ~x86 box without problems)

[Comment 4 Andrej Kacian (RETIRED) 2006-10-08 12:50:16 UTC]

A bit early, but since it seems to fix previous revision (from ChangeLog), and it actually works, I've stabilized it.

[Comment 5 CPUShare 2006-10-11 17:31:31 UTC]

I would suggest as a further enhancement for new releases to consider splitting the kernel modules from the userland tools (slmodem-drivers out of slmodem). I shouldn't need any special external kernel module for my hardware, the alsa 8x0m driver should be enough, and the userland part is much less likely to break with future stable kernel releases.

thanks.
