pkgutils: Finalizing the libarchive move
by Tilman Sauerbeck 18 Apr '07

18 Apr '07

Hi, I'd like to finalize the move of pkgutils to libarchive, and make another pkgutils release soonish. * libarchive's 2.0 branch has been stable since ~February * it works well for me * libarchive is very well maintained: bugs/patches get fixed/included immediately (I found one minor bug in libarchive last week). * there's no notable difference in size of pkgadd or in terms of speed of pkgadd * adding support for bzip2'ed packages is trivial and just requires a one line diff in pkgmk (just in case we want to offer that feature) The main reason I send this mail is to ask for any last minute objections to this. I remember Simone had some doubts about the performance, but I don't see any problems wrt to that. Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?

Wiki: Setting up Handbook_2_4
by Tilman Sauerbeck 17 Apr '07

17 Apr '07

Hi guys, I just wanted to merge treach's changes to the handbook (he reworked the "why crux?" paragraph nicely -- http://hem.bredband.net/treach/Why.txt) but I'm unsure about how to set up the Handbook_2_4 Wiki pages. Do I need to copy&paste the ~5 sections of the handbook manually? Or is there some easy way to have the wiki do it? ;) Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting.
