Re: [gentoo-dev] Re: On dropping sparc@ from CC on bugs

[Yury German]

OK so let me repeat the comments that were made on @dev  (and expand a bit further) and close the issue.

1. Maintainers are free to cc the non-stable and experimental arches as part of their call for stabilization. It is up to the maintainer of the package to decide.

2. This is providing that there is no problems caused by stableboy or extra dependencies raised
Note: as a follow up change was made: 07:47 <@kensington> leio: b-man: good point, dropped sparc from stable_arches

3. Clean up is required as part of the security bug process, and if an arch is holding it up (example hppa before Slyfox took it over) an issue would have to be raised with the QA team for action. [1]

4. Bugs will be closed without waiting for any non-security supported arches, once the security process is complete.

5. Security bugs are not re-assigned since they are assigned as a vulnerability in bugzilla. If you need to continue work on the bug, please feel free to open another bug for the particular arch for stabilization, fix, etc.

If you have any questions please let me know.
