Hi list, |
4 |
|
5 |
a quick mail to announce that the gnome team, in order to prepare for |
6 |
gnome 3, started slotting a lot of gnome team managed packages. If you |
7 |
find yourself using such a package, please update your ebuilds to use |
8 |
slot notations or other EAPI compliant notation resulting in the same |
9 |
effect. |
10 |
|
11 |
Packages with only a slot 0 need not to be slot depended on. |
12 |
We will slot move anything that needs to be (webkit-gtk slot is wrong |
13 |
for now) and open tracker bugs once the first pass will be done. |
14 |
|
15 |
Beware that some old slots have requests for removal that we are |
16 |
currently working on, so if your package depends on one such old slot, |
17 |
feel free to jump in the relevant bug reports. |
18 |
|
19 |
Package slots on their way out: |
20 |
* gnome-extra/libgnomedb < 4 (currently means all slots) |
21 |
* gnome-extra/libgda:1 (for now, 3 might follow soonish, we have :4) |
22 |
* dev-cpp/libgdamm:0 (we have :4) |
23 |
* x11-libs/gtksourceviewmm:1.0 (we have :2) |
24 |
|
25 |
See attached list for packages already slotted. |
26 |
|
27 |
We aim at including gtk:3 in the coming days, so please forgive us if we |
28 |
get to your package before you read this mail. |
