Not really. They are not in 6.8.2-r1, and the way for anyone wanting them |
| 21 |
into 6.8.2-r2 is the same as for 6.8.2-r1. Also, unless I am missing |
| 22 |
something, for sparc, 6.8.2-r2 and 6.8.2-r1 are the same. At least, |
| 23 |
when 6.8.2-r2 first came out, that was what I inferred from the ChangeLog |
| 24 |
notes. That's why I never bothered with ~sparc-ing it until yesterday in |
| 25 |
response to your status request. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
The reason I mentioned them is that if you anticipate a long and stable |
| 28 |
life for 6.8.2-r2, it makes things a little cleaner sparc-ishly. |
| 29 |
Otherwise, there's not much point. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
So, unless there is some compelling reason I am unaware of, I'm inclined |
| 32 |
never to move 6.8.2-r2 ~sparc-->sparc. When asked, I suggest unmasking |
| 33 |
the 6.8.99.xx series and test them instead, anyway. (I've kept them |
| 34 |
~sparc all along because they work fine except for some eccentricities in, |
| 35 |
I believe, Mesa vtxvector, but I need feedback from other people to track |
| 36 |
it down. I plan to get to it, but more pressing tasks keep pushing it |
| 37 |
down on my priority list.) |

Done witfinals yet? :) |
