I wonder how much packages KDE needs rebuilt with the expat bump (revdep-rebuild --library expat.so or something like that). Maybe including it in the GNOME bumps is a good idea if that has it for more packages than KDE. As for SLOTting, it was considered to be a maintenance nightmare by the person who was maintaining expat before, and as Caleb already pointed out in the correct subthread, not SLOTting seemed to be sensible course of action in this case as I gathered too some months back when looking into this while making stabilization lists for gnome 2.16. --=20 Mart Raudsepp Gentoo Developer Mail: leio@gentoo.org Weblog: http://planet.gentoo.org/developers/leio --=-mhLOXcLnM7q3q/qMohHJ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBGSaO6keYb6olFHJcRAhMrAKDo+WWxiXD/MfteWPvtDgAd9R17GACgiOc7 tQ7W62PlGxlulnzrdKIhKEA= =vkKf -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-mhLOXcLnM7q3q/qMohHJ-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
