Hello all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
due to some really ugly circumstances I will remove hardened support |
| 4 |
and all hardened related patches from virtualbox packages within one |
| 5 |
week unless some Gentoo dev steps up and starts maintaining the |
| 6 |
hardended support in those virtualbox packages. |
| 7 |
I never used hardened myself and do not have the intention to do so |
| 8 |
just for a single group of packages I maintain. |
| 9 |
It turns out that the hardened patches for virtualbox packages tend to |
| 10 |
break every other new virtualbox release and I don't think it's fair |
| 11 |
for our hardened users to pretend those packages work on a hardened |
| 12 |
environment when they in fact more often do not. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
I know this might upset a couple of devs and users but I have to draw a |
| 15 |
line somewhere and I decided I draw it here. |
