Description Thomas Kahle (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-07 09:54:51 UTC
-) Current stable does not build (bug #273616)
-) Seems to have no serious issues.
-) In tree long enough.

Thanks.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-27 16:29:57 UTC
How about, we wait for another month? Prelude 1.0.0 is now in the tree and solves a lot of the QA issues we've seen mount up.
Comment 2 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-11-05 10:48:12 UTC
Maintainer timeout.  CCing arches.

Please carefully test app-admin/prelude-manager-1.0.0
Comment 3 Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2010-11-05 14:12:38 UTC
Changed summary.

the exact version is 1.0.0-r1 (1.0.0 is dead on cvs)
Comment 4 Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2010-11-05 14:20:23 UTC
I notice that there are available versions 1.0.0 of:
dev-libs/libprelude
dev-libs/libpreludedb

How do you want to proceed?
Comment 5 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-11-05 15:01:05 UTC
They have to be included, of course.
Comment 6 Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2010-11-09 20:22:04 UTC
Not run for me: ( What am I doing wrong? )

This is the list I am planning for x86 after some issues have been resolved.

=app-admin/prelude-lml-1.0.0
=app-admin/prelude-manager-1.0.0-r1
=dev-libs/libprelude-1.0.0-r1
=dev-libs/libpreludedb-1.0.0-r1
Comment 8 Thomas Kahle (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-12-29 11:33:37 UTC
This seems to be a little stuck. Current prelude has serious problems, but the ~version is also not good. I think we should not stick with a non working version in our stable tree. We have two options:

-) drop stable keywords of prelude  (I would go for this!)
-) stable newer version despite problems (at least it does build so it could be useful for some users)

And of course there is 
-) fix ~arch version
But it seems that everybody is overworked anyway.

Comments?

Looking at the bugs that block this one, one seems to be specific for x86_64 (missing dep?), one has already some sort of patch attached to it and one has an USE flag that should not be in there (or calls the wrong configure option). Of course I haven't looked into it in detail, but these things seem fairly easy to fix. How about flagging them for bugday?

Fixed 2 bugs, but saw during fixing, that these packages have a lot more issues and are not up to quality. Just posted a new bug, have 2 more bugs in the pipe-line (one will be posted later, one has to go upstream (who doesn't seem to be that active)).

Maybe dropping stable is not such bad idea after all.

Comment 11 Thomas Kahle (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-01-10 20:56:30 UTC
Ok, there seems to be a too long way to go for us as an arch team.

x86 dropped stable keywords on older prelude packges (non-building with many problems...)

@netmon: Please consider us for stable on a later version when things are in good shape again.

Thanks for flying x86.

amd64 will pass. Too many blockers. CC us when you fix your package
Comment 13 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-05-29 16:19:46 UTC
~alpha/~arm/~ia64/~sparc keywords dropped
Comment 14 Kacper Kowalik (Xarthisius) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-07-26 07:48:27 UTC
ppc keywords dropped
Comment 15 Sergey Popov gentoo-dev 2012-10-02 15:51:38 UTC
Prelude was removed from tree
