As of Wednesday, July 4, 2012 at approximately 10:00 UTC, the manifest |
2 |
hashes used on the gentoo-x86 tree will change to "SHA256 SHA512 |
3 |
WHIRLPOOL". To facilitate this change, developers MUST be using at |
4 |
least portage-2.1.10.49 (or portage-2.2_alpha89), or, if your |
5 |
dev-lang/python is built with USE="-ssl", portage-2.1.10.51 (or |
6 |
portage-2.2_alpha95) or later is required. |

|
8 |
For users, if they are on a older portage, it will gracefully |
9 |
downgrade. For developers, however, not using a supported version will |
10 |
cause tree inconsistencies. Developers will also need to make sure |
11 |
they cvs up metadata/layout.conf (or cvs up the entire tree) after |
12 |
this change occurs before making any commits. |
