Hi all,
Hey,
as you might have already seen, I've commited some updates for core-ports to our 2.3 branch.
Good. Meanwhile I tested a bit branch merging (one of the reasons we moved to git); so far so good. To ease up maintainance of the branches I suggest we commit to 2.2 generic port updates, touching 2.3 only for specific, 2.3-related changes. This way we can periodically merge 2.2 updates with 2.3 with virtually no conflicts.
I'm using glibc 2.5 and gcc 4.1.1 from Johnannes' httpup-repo and made some bootstrap runs for all core-ports on a fresh partition, without any problems so far.
Sounds good. Just to recap, leaving out ports & kernel updates, these adjustements are needed for producing a working iso: - Add new setup script (groups+dependencies+xorg) - Adjust Makefile: - ports are no longer in the same dir and must be ckecked out from git repos - add a filter for opt ports to be included in the iso - setup-helper: x11-> xorg Not sure about the plan for merging with matt's livecd. If somebody - cough...system team...cough ;) - is interested in adjusting the Makefile please speak up, I see it as a top priority. As a relevant note, we created a 2.3 version on flyspray, so we can track to-do items in a more organized way[1] if I forgot something in the above list please add it to flyspray and set the 'Due in version' field to 2.3.
