Ok, this is the last update. 0.11.8 fixes the issue in 0.11.7, so you |
20 |
should not see any more quick pushes to stable. I take full |
21 |
responsibility for the issue in 0.11.7, and will work with the OpenRC |
22 |
team and QA to catch issues like this better in the future. Thanks for |
23 |
your patience. |
