Why then? Well, my finals will be over, so I'll have time to deal with the expected deluge of reports. Why is -r4 interesting again? http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/22986 details a number of the changes. I recently added a new patchset with some more, including fixes to: * keyboard model default and key repeating -- might fix a few "some of my keys don't work" problems, because the default used to be pc101 rather than pc105 with the new kbd driver. * libGL segfaults * some xmodmap problems * latest Xpm security fix allows absolute paths again (fixes the GIMP's Xpm plugin) We need more testers to see which other packages are broken regarding how they test for X libraries. Some of them assume the libraries won't be in /usr/lib so supply a -L/path/to/X/libs even if they're in /usr/lib. This results in a naked -L, which breaks things. If anyone sees things suddenly breaking, check config.log for this. See http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D72124 for an example fix.
