This thread is missing a bunch of context...so I'll try to add it I guess. |

I can't tell if the complaint is that: |
28 |
|
29 |
1) Someone blind-stabled something on arm and it broke (doesn't build?) |
30 |
2) The arm team failed to mark a package stable before a hard deadline |
31 |
(DNSSEC key rotation) |
32 |
|
33 |
I presume its the latter? Whats the impact? All DNS, or only DNSSEC |
34 |
validated entries? |
35 |

I'm not really sure I buy this as an argument; but then again I think there |
42 |
is a general expectation that Gentoo users using 'are paying attention'[0] |
43 |
so stable arm users would have unmasked the ~arch version of the keys long |
44 |
before today. |
45 |
|
46 |
[0] Particularly people using DNSSEC...but maybe I'm just a curmudgeon. |
