Jason deployed .20 via distfiles-local to get it into the mirrors prior to |
11 |
adding the ebuild. |
12 |
So why is that file in the list of files that are marked for deletion? |
13 |
Becuase at the time of the run, _no_ ebuild claimed that file. We |
14 |
didn't push the portage ebuild into the tree until .20 tarball was in |
15 |
the mirrors. |
16 |

So it's valid. It's also the reason we wait a full week before |
18 |
actually removing any file from the mirror tier. |

Yes. I'll be restaggering the deletions to run during the first week |
24 |
it's live, so you've got a week. :) |
25 |
What *can* be done, but requires a damn good reason, is that |
26 |
individual files can have their deletion times screwed with- same way |
27 |
I'm staggering the deletes. |
28 |
|
29 |
That said, I don't care to do it unless requested. Mentioning it, |
30 |
because in special cases/circumstances it may be needed (just the same |
31 |
as in special cases/circumstances, cvs->rsync can be turned off if |
32 |
someone breaks the tree). If a file is marked for deletion, you've |
33 |
got a week from detection to either fix the ebuild, or add an ebuild |
34 |
in- this however is valid. The mirror tier isn't a dumping ground :) |
