I'm sorry, but please don't tell me how things work within my project when you either don't have a clue, which I know isn't the case, or are simply ignoring the facts to match what you want to believe. We ship .tbz2 files on our GRP release media. Until we either: a) stop shipping .tbz2 files -or- b) switch to paludis support only The Gentoo release media can *not* be built with Paludis, as it does not have support for *all* of the portions of the release media that we currently build. This is a simple fact that cannot be disputed. You can build *portions* of a release, but not the entire thing. Also, with an incompatible VDB, the point is moot, anyway, as all of the release building tools currently require a portage-compatible VDB. I've been only pointing out things that I consider from a technical or policy basis. Please don't go around trying to make it out like I'm wrong about a process that *I* determine, just to make your package manager look better. It can *not* be used to build a Gentoo release at this time. You will notice that *nowhere* did I say anything about this being any kind of blocker for paludis being in the tree, or any paludis profiles, only that it is a blocker for it ever being used for building our releases, without us deciding to change *what* we release. --=20 Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead x86 Architecture Team Games - Developer Gentoo Linux --=-Pk1kIAUX0AB2K7jZkVhG Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBEa0nDkT4lNIS36YERAmVqAKChDWJELzXAGanvsPwrbTpsqGHkNgCfQhtu Ol0DBef+eP8ZmDWc+eg2/1g= =ghfe -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-Pk1kIAUX0AB2K7jZkVhG-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
