How's the pressure on you guys for releases? Releasing has been interesting. It was a lot smoother on mips for 2004.1 than 2004.0 (even though all of mips 2004.1 is sitting in my dev space right now until I give it some final touch ups and dump it to the mirrors). I ran into some random glitches and obscure bugs in both catalyst and chrooted userland during 2004.0 that were fixed for 2004.1 (i.e., make-3.80 will segfault on glibc-2.3.2 on an R5K Indy in chroot only). Hopefully 2004.2 will be even smoother. I was able to get the stages done relatively quickly, but GRP took a little more cause it was the first grp set I've generated, and it still needs work. In the case of the cobalt-mips support, GRP gave me an xfree build for a system which is completely headless. So I'm hoping by 2004.2, I'll be able to have a smoother run through GRP and all. --Kumba -- "Such is oft the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere." --Elrond -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
