Subject: [gentoo-dev-announce] cmake-utils.eclass consumers will be broken by >=dev-util/cmake-3.23.0
Date: Sat, 26 Feb 2022 19:31:40
Message-Id: 2165309.vFx2qVVIhK@tuxbook
1 Dear packagers,
2
3 - More than 4500 ebuilds were switched to cmake.eclass since 2019-12-21 [1]
4 - Less than 110 ebuilds still inherit cmake-utils.eclass [2]
5 - A change in cmake-3.23 will break all revdeps doing so
6 - I am not fixing it
7 - If *you* fix it, you will become the sole maintainer of cmake-utils.eclass
8 - Any bugs filed as a result of this will block a future cmake-utils.eclass
9 last-rites tracker. Failure to respond will make your package a last-rites
10 candidate too.
