This is bad, because:

- - you forgot the ChangeLog entry
- - you forgot the last rites mail
- - baselayout-2/openrc isn't stable yet, in fact it's even masked in
profiles/targets/vserver/package.mask

`cvs log` is the changelog, i don't see why i should add a changelog entry.

indeed

i don't care. baselayout-vserver is a hack, the vserver profiles are
deprecated since ages (although i think the restructuring revived them),
and the vserver team (that's only me currently) doesn't support anything
else beside openrc.

for the same reason packages have ChangeLogs.  cvs logs don't come
with the tree.

There is the same reason as for ChangeLogs for ebuilds. Users (I'm user
too) don't have cvs log at hand at their systems but still consider that
it's important to know about changes.

Is it really hard to script `echangelog "msg" && cvs commit -m "msg"`?

In my opinion the cvs commit log and the ChangeLog serve 2 different 
purposes. The cvs log is for developers while the ChangeLog is for 
users. While the cvs log will likely just want to explain what change 
was made, the ChangeLog should explain why it was made.

Developers need to realise that users don't know everything about the 
software they use and don't always pin down the reasons for unexpected 
beviour. Users also don't always read the documentation given to them.

This has been seen recently in the change of default behavior of the 
world set in stable portage is a good example of this. Many users didn't 
even know about the --update option and many don't read post-commit 
messages (I expect because they don't realise the importance of those 
messages or how they can change the ELOG options to make the messages 
easier to read, for example by having them emailed to them).

There are other examples of insufficient information being given to 
users too - the dvdnav USE flag was masked recently, but neither the 
ChangeLog or the cvs commit message give any indication as to why this 
occurred.

In my opinion Gentoo developers need to do more to communicate with 
their users. This could be as simple as prominently posting 
documentation on the elog system and how to tailor it. Or it might 
involve posting more announcements to the Gentoo website (which would 
double up and make the project look more active than it currently does 
from its front page).

AllenJB

PS. I know about index2.xml - but that doesn't look like it's going to 
be the main front page any time soon at the moment, which is a real 
shame because it has some awesome changes.

It sounds like you just volunteered to write an article on elog for
the GMN...am I reading your post correctly? :)

So if you want to know both, you need to look in 2 places? That doesn't 
seem very nice to me. Also in a distributed VCS, we'd want to generate 
ChangeLogs from the commit logs to avoid all kinds of annoying conflict 
resolution and remove redundant information.

I need to write up an announcement for the changes, then Xavier will 
flip the switch. Think days not weeks.

Hmm... or the other way around, so that, after making changes, echangelog 
would generate ChangeLog entry, then repoman manifest, and at the end repoman 
commit could just pick this entry and place as commit message.

It would of course make sense when all commits were 'atomic' in some way - 
(one commit per package/directory - if there's no such policy already).

We do not distribute portage tree trough cvs and rsync does not have
ChangeLog's. But even with cvs, cvs log is very slow ...

> ChangeLogs from the commit logs

True. But portage tree is still CVS and until this happened we need
document all changes in ChangeLog's.

That doesn't make much sense... Mask fldigi and suggest it at the same time?

s/current/only/

I currently have pdftex,luatex & xpdf failing here. It would have been
nice if maintainers had been contacted before pushing this to ~arch
since it is a very well known api-breaking library. Not that they seem
difficult to fix but I'm not really fond of the "let it break, wait for
bug reports, fix later" way.

Whenever you modify anything in profiles directory, please, fill in
ChangeLog. ChangeLogs became useless if only part of developers fill
them. 

Just to remind. There are per-arch ChangeLog, base profile ChangeLog,
features ChangeLog and for other stuff ChangeLog:

/usr/portage/profiles/base/ChangeLog
/usr/portage/profiles/arch/sh/ChangeLog
[snip other archs ChangeLog]
/usr/portage/profiles/default-bsd/ChangeLog
/usr/portage/profiles/embedded/ChangeLog
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/arm/ChangeLog
[snip other archs ChangeLog]
/usr/portage/profiles/hardened/x86/ChangeLog
/usr/portage/profiles/features/ChangeLog
/usr/portage/profiles/ChangeLog

Thus whenever you change anything in arch profile, or in base or
features subdirectory use relevant ChangeLog. For other changes like
local USE flags documentation, masking/unmasking/updating masks (not
comments :)) use /usr/portage/profiles/ChangeLog.

Thank you,

Perhaps install a script which automatically takes the CVS comment when
some of these files is changed and adds this comment automatically to
the ChangeLog?

I think he meant something which would add an entry to the ChangeLog
during the commit stage without extra intevention. Having said that,
many developers have some form of commit script which contains things
like manifest, changelog and commit commands.

Some days ago Diego (flameeyes) suggested to write script which will
abort commit in case ChangeLog is not filled. Taking into account a
number (about 1 commit per day(!)) of developers who forgive to use
echangelog I think this is the only way to go if we want that
ChangeLog's to be useful...

How about fixing the right problem instead forcing devs to complete yet 
another step?
The right way of fixing that is by creating changelogs automatically, 
based on cvs commit comments.

Possibly by making it a part of the whole repoman commit process? I'm
pretty sure I've mentioned this in a council meeting:
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/meeting-logs/20080508-summary.txt
(Check the 'New Topics' -> 'When are ChangeLog entries required?'

Whenever you modify anything in profiles directory, please, fill in
ChangeLog. ChangeLogs became useless if only part of developers fill
them. 

Just to remind. There are per-arch ChangeLog, base profile ChangeLog,
features ChangeLog and for other stuff ChangeLog:

/usr/portage/profiles/base/ChangeLog
/usr/portage/profiles/arch/sh/ChangeLog
[snip other archs ChangeLog]
/usr/portage/profiles/default-bsd/ChangeLog

[snip other archs ChangeLog]
/usr/portage/profiles/hardened/x86/ChangeLog
/usr/portage/profiles/features/ChangeLog
/usr/portage/profiles/ChangeLog

Thus whenever you change anything in arch profile, or in base or
features subdirectory use relevant ChangeLog. For other changes like
local USE flags, masking/unmasking/updating masks (not comments :))
use /usr/portage/profiles/ChangeLog.

Could you add ChangeLog entries for thing like this, please? If only
