Subject: [gentoo-alt] Getting dev-lang/perl and deps prefix-clean for ::gentoo
Date: Sat, 22 Dec 2018 00:31:58
Message-Id: 20181222133107.19eafa41@katipo2.lan
1 I've been overall impressed with the progress made on recent
2 keywording/stable requests for dev-perl/* prefix [1][2][3].
3
4 So I figured I'd put some effort into getting not only dev-perl/* ->
5 dev-lang/perl up-to-scratch, but attempt to fix the warts between
6 dev-lang/perl and the rest of ::gentoo
7
8 But uh, the deps are dark and full of terrors.
9
10 So I started by focusing on one dep: sys-libs/db , but even that has a
11 nightmarish depgraph :/
12
13 Here's my current progress (attached) for what sort of things need to
14 be changed ( as indicated by repoman -d -e y ) to make all necessary
15 arches happy, but as you can see it gets crazy fast, turning up in
16 java, emacs, systemd...
17
18 So obviously some hacks to mask USE flags in profiles are going to be
19 needed to make this happy.
20
21 So far my list includes:
22
23 ~amd64-fbsd : 2 packages
24 ~x86-macos : 15 packages
25 ~ppc-macos : 17 packages
26 ~x64-solaris : 17 packages
27 ~x86-solaris : 20 packages
28 ~x86-linux : 22 packages
29 ~sparc-solaris : 24 packages
30 ~sparc64-solaris : 24 packages
31 ~m68k-mint : 25 packages
32 ~x64-cygwin : 25 packages
33 ~x64-macos : 26 packages
34 ~mips : 27 packages
35 ~amd64-linux : 32 packages
36 ~ppc-aix : 67 packages
37 ---
38 bsd@g.o : 2 packages
39 mips@g.o : 27 packages
40 prefix@g.o : 80 packages ( 314 distinct keywordings )
41
42 So if there's some subset of keywords that maybe I should focus on
43 getting done instead of doing a blanket request, that might help.
44 (amd64-fbsd for instance currently looks easy, but might get out of
45 hand eventually)
