Bug 606818 – Gnome*/Gstreamer* maintained packages stabilization list for January 2017

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Pacho Ramos 2017-01-22 15:48:54 UTC]

Well, some arches are still pending to do bug 587010 ... but we have already waited lots of months... then, I will probably make them to jump directly to this when I finish a last list for the old Gnome 3.20 cycle and gstreamer-1.8

[Comment 1 Pacho Ramos 2017-01-22 18:00:05 UTC]

First try

I have just seen that ago has done sparc recently in the other bug report... that is not a big issue because, in the way we perform stabilizations, arches will simply skip the already stabilized packages and only keyword the newly added

[Comment 2 Aaron Bauman (RETIRED) 2017-02-03 09:04:55 UTC]

A stable request that depends on stable requests?

CC arches when fixed.

Of course, it is the way we work for ages, otherwise we are always blocked by the last arch

[Comment 4 Pacho Ramos 2017-02-03 12:24:21 UTC]

And if you now want to add one new policy on this, it needs to be discussed at first in gentoo-dev ML because that would be a big change over the workflow we are following for... ever?! And the most important drawback would be that as soon as ATs from an arch are not able to stabilize fast enough (well... like sparc or ia64 until Ago was able to go ahead and do the work on them) we get all parent stabilizations blocked even for all the arches (for example in this case, this depends on two bugs that are waiting for arm team to get them stabilized). 

Even stable-bot is handling this

[Comment 5 Pacho Ramos 2017-02-04 13:26:44 UTC]

gnome-control-center-3.20.2-r1 to stop trying to pull unavailable samba3 with smbclient and dying because of that

[Comment 6 Pacho Ramos 2017-02-11 11:49:32 UTC]

update webkit-gtk

[Comment 7 Mart Raudsepp 2017-02-11 12:44:52 UTC]

webkit-gtk stabilization has to be in a separate security bug for CVE-2017-2350, CVE-2017-2354, CVE-2017-2355, CVE-2017-2356, CVE-2017-2362, CVE-2017-2363,
CVE-2017-2364, CVE-2017-2365, CVE-2017-2366, CVE-2017-2369, CVE-2017-2371, CVE-2017-2373 - https://webkitgtk.org/security/WSA-2017-0002.html

It's also a gnome 3.22 version already, but unless someone backports...

Also removing epiphany because it needs to be bumped to 3.20.7 and security stabled - https://webkitgtk.org/security/WSA-2017-0001.html

Also removing all of gstreamer 1.8, as they are already done and 1.10.3 will be stabilizing in a separate security bug as well.

[Comment 8 Pacho Ramos 2017-02-11 13:28:53 UTC]

That is not the case anymore, we MUST use latest webkit-gtk even for 3.20 (with the newer epiphany), this was sent us via distributors list I think some months ago

[Comment 9 Mart Raudsepp 2017-02-11 13:35:40 UTC]

I removed webkit-gtk because it needs to receive a new security bug for all the CVEs and handle stabilization there, not in a big batch of things that has nothing to do with the security fixes. Not because it's part of 3.22 cycle.

your references to someone needing to backport confused me, but I will open the bug report for trying to not block it anymore

webkit-gtk security issues handled in bug 608958

[Comment 14 Mart Raudsepp 2017-02-16 00:10:33 UTC]

Updated package list after the tracker non-maintainer bump for virtual/imagemagick-tools randomly rechecking into sanity-check-. All the stuff that's been done already removed, gtk+:2 arch list fixed (ia64/sparc were missing while previous revision they are stable at least now)

[Comment 15 Agostino Sarubbo 2017-02-17 10:58:18 UTC]

sparc stable

[Comment 21 Mart Raudsepp 2017-02-24 23:15:42 UTC]

Reducing list with stuff hppa doesn't need to stable and wasn't listed in per-arch stuff.

[Comment 22 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2017-03-16 13:23:39 UTC]

Stable for HPPA. Closing.
