Hello Mr. Grozin, |
15 |
|
16 |
|
17 |
today you removed the hard masks. However, I think that we should p.mask |
18 |
them again, temporarily, for the following reasons: |
19 |
|
20 |
1) the asdf-2 ebuild is not well tested. It fails on make doc if |
21 |
texi2pdf is not available, also needs sbcl at the moment (try to build |
22 |
it without sbcl on the system, it will fail). And these, just for the |
23 |
start. |
24 |
|
25 |
2) we don't know yet the impact asdf-2 will cause in other packages in |
26 |
the tree. For example clisp is pulled by xindy pulled by texlive (a |
27 |
package all gentoo latex guys have in their system). |
28 |
|
29 |
3) we don't know yet the impact this update will cause in the overlay. |
30 |
And there are still people using it. |
31 |
|
32 |
4) I don't like at all, having these random bash functions in the |
33 |
ebuilds instead of an eclass. |
34 |
|
35 |
It's better to work together in the next days and push in the tree the |
36 |
common-lisp-3 eclass, and also do more testing. |
37 |
|
38 |
I'm considering p.masking again these packages in the next hours. |
39 |

Merry Christmas, |
