No, most of the ones we're complaining about have nothing to do with KEYWORDS, at all, and everything to do with changes to policy and such that have been enacted since the ebuild was last touched. See, repoman doesn't care if you're just making a KEYWORD change or if you're making coding changes to an ebuild. It still will fail if something fails a QA check, even if the failure is on an ebuild you're not touching. As such, it is a serious pain in the ass for architecture teams and developers who are *not* slacking when one particular architecture only has ebuilds that are ancient marked stable. It increases the support burden for *EVERYONE* else to keep this one architecture's stable tree as it currently sits. --=20 Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer --=-6oHGSGB7BmAXI0av4HUC Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBHhSs9kT4lNIS36YERArBaAJ4jfraoDDrVjN9sGlKFCp3Z85JeiwCePZk8 LxVWP3v+u/fSMnuZuR7EIZY= =ktAd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-6oHGSGB7BmAXI0av4HUC-- -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
