[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2656 bytes --]

Hello everyone


Attached you will find the various changes I plan to apply to
kernel-2.eclass after a week if there are no objections, feel free to
take a look at them. A summary of the changes:

- Added a warning after the variables that modifying other variables in
  the eclass is not supported, there is a chance that we will not fix
  resulting bugs. Fixes bug #421721.

- Make use of readme.gentoo.eclass to make the user aware of the Gentoo
  Linux Kernel Upgrade Guide only the first time he emerges the
  package. Fixes bug #457598.

- Clarify the default DESCRIPTION and make it not use versions, a
  directory with ebuilds that inherit this eclass may contain multiple
  versions and we also don't want to give the impression that a new
  directory needs to made if that's not the case. Fixes bug #445110.

- Clarified which patch depths are used in the normal output and error
  output when applying patches. Fixes bug #436402.

- Made sure .tmp_gas_check is created inside the temp folder, it
  accidentally created temp.tmp_gas_check instead. Fixes bug #336732.

- Make UNIPATCH_DOCS work again, install 0000_README document when
  using genpatches. Fixes bug #301478.

Since these are quite a few changes, it doesn't hurt posting them here.

I'll also summarize the past commits I made, for those who missed them:

- Kernel sources and (gen)patches now use xz instead of bz2. Fixes bug
  #421721.

- Added sys-devel/bc as a RDEPEND to kernel-2.eclass. Fixes bug
  #461848.

- Use UID 0 instead of root to assign permissions to super user. Fixes
  bug #315807.

The commit diffs can be obtained at http://sources.gentoo.org/

There is a guideline that reporting small changes to barely used
eclasses here is not required, but that made some out-of-tree users
unhappy; sorry for that, I'll try to get every eclass change reviewed
in the future to avoid these issues. Small changes, like the above, I
will try to combine together to avoid unnecessary mail and commit spam.

That being said, since 3.8.7 has landed upstream we would like to hear
about any issues we don't know about yet that would block stabilization;
if we can, I plan to start stabilization in less than two weeks. Unless
there are valid reasons for this to be done earlier/later.

I'll add 3.2.43 and 3.8.7 to the tree in a moment, as it is late 3.0.73
and 3.4.40 will be for tomorrow...

Have a nice day. :)
