21 +Title: Most stable hppa keywords removed
22 +Author: Matt Turner <mattst88@g.o>
23 +Posted: 2020-12-26
24 +Revision: 1
25 +News-Item-Format: 2.0
26 +Display-If-Keyword: hppa
27 +
28 +The Gentoo/HPPA team no longer thinks that the time invested in
29 +package stabilization is warranted for the small number of users on
30 +HPPA. As a result, we will drop most "hppa" keywords to "~hppa" on
31 +2020-12-31. Around 850 packages will retain their stable keywords.
32 +
33 +Users need not make any changes to their systems—other than perhaps
34 +adding some entries to their package.accept_keywords file. The
35 +Gentoo/HPPA team has no plans to remove support for the architecture.
