Ohey, |
2 |
|
3 |
as you might have noticed I've just corrected the metadata.xml of all |
4 |
elasticsearch-related packages. |
5 |
For some strange reason I was listed there as maintainer, but since no |
6 |
one wanted to listen to my ideas I guess I wasn't. So now last person |
7 |
who touched it gets stuck with it. |
8 |
|
9 |
Since proxy-maint refuses to be removed from packages (especially since |
10 |
they were unconditionally added to all packages with a non-gentoo-dev |
11 |
maintainer in metadata) they are the de facto maintainers, and overrule |
12 |
everything else. |
13 |
I've tried multiple strategies including removing them from metadata, |
14 |
but ... see app-admin/elasticsearch, proxy-maint is like the toe fungus |
15 |
that always comes back (e.g. commit |
16 |
f0925c10834464e62ce7209f2afa7797b594d350 ) |
17 |
|
18 |
Sometimes it's almost absurdly funny, especially when you commit |
19 |
RESTRICT="test" because tests fail reliably just to have that reverted. |

That removed the versions I was using, so I better maintain the versions |
29 |
I use in an overlay. Well ok then. |
30 |
|
31 |
Since I, as maintainer, can't ... anything, well [CENSORED] this, now |
32 |
they are your packages. Don't try to reassign or drop them: You've |
33 |
demanded, insisted, to be maintainers ... wish granted. |
34 |
|
35 |
So, err, well, is like ... wtf? I'm not sure how this all makes sense, |
36 |
but it's Not My Problem now. Take care now, bye bye then. |
37 |

38 |
Oh, and Erki Ferenc was in metadata too, he's been inactive but told me |
39 |
that he wants to continue maintaining these packages in the near future. |
40 |
If he asks I'd recommend adding him back. |

P.S. If this sounds a bit incoherent, well ... the whole situation is, I |
45 |
have no idea what's going on or why I was in metadata ;) |
