EAPI=4 deprecation +===================== +https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-project/message/b5b7aa83ddd64fdfa84284c1ceddcec6 + +By unanimous agreement EAPI=4 is declared deprecated. + + +2. Behaviour of asterisk with = dependency operator +=================================================== +https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-project/message/65abf95ef1ea05a1aa3bc716be386a64 +https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=560466 +https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/portage.git/commit/?id=d4966a381ee4577818bd972946647338046715b1 + +By unanimous vote, the proposed PMS modification is introduced +retroactively for all EAPIs. + +By the current description of the * operator in PMS, a dependency +cat/foo-1.2* matches cat/foo-1.2, cat/foo-1.2.1, etc. but it also +matches cat/foo-1.20. The definition in PMS is updated such that +version components cannot be split when matching (i.e. 1.2* would not +match 1.20). + + +3. Runtime dependencies and dynamic dependency deprecation +========================================================== +https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-project/message/a8b5b499b9dbfdaea57a8f2a158c1fe7 +http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/97742 +http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/97428/focus=97742 + +The following policy was accepted by unanimous vote: +"Maintainers must not assume that dynamic dependencies will be applied +by the package manager. When changing runtime dependencies the +maintainer should revision the ebuild if the changes are likely to +cause problems for end users." + +The details, in particular the explicit rules proposed by rich0 on the +gentoo-devel mailing list, were referred back to the list for further +discussion and should eventually become recommendations. Further +decisions on policies may also be up to the QA team. + + +4. Games policies +================= +https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-project/message/16fc54d2bced9ff51b71d387eb0fb36b + +After some discussion on the details of FHS, the merit of separate +users and directories for games and our Gentoo directory structure, +the following votes as proposed by rich0 were taken: + +"1. Decide that games should not be owned by a games group, and that +in the default configuration users should not have to be in the games +group to run games." +Motion accepted with 6 yes and 1 abstention + +"2. Games should be installed in /usr and not /usr/games as with most +applications" +Motion not passed, 2 yes, 2 no and 3 abstentions + + +5. Games bugzilla component +=========================== +https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-project/message/2175a9dde8a1fb614ccb75c60c43c8c8 + +By unanimous vote the 'Games" component of bugzilla will be assigned +by default to bug wranglers instead of the games team. + + +The meeting will be continued on next sunday, same time and place. + +-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- +Version: GnuPG v2 + +iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJWI9DLAAoJEB9VdM6hupKVI4QQAIgsEeow+/xBo0miDad6rX5d +NoFfyoCU3MwAwJP+XWGZOLZlSJ2j+herQktcZxZLroONl/l2WZ36inM39Pn4LYaf +w1qi0xmYoAdbuvudzBKc8DWDEx5/kuZqBzCyjNJvZelf1zRnoYbbTPhtQvb7U5Xw +pO0QgrGkQ1vjJeebTX6TWkDCUC6sC2d1tLL+y90tFoAkS2VDsbP0VViX0VKW46fu +dJtrlkiZ6hXH5oc8xGU+cyNhAEQMX4Oni/gAKAKRDS7YxvZzfUAJX8hNsM85tXmr +9y+aLkl2YlilbDqigvllXm9/LJJChbQXV3Q+weOL0R5e/JeNAeXOULLS72HXFMRV ++/TTy9zGdcvl/0YxlKKJSVTvrRQ2tHBGfVcT7tnbGhg8qtYtmIgsWHfsutqVnIEa +Nf9gVNnT3HLXFrvHy3yRzNPwQLmC9jGSL5f/crgNPwmX7VJBJz1/NEc6XtndEDrk +reAXsacXnx3qrnRIgq3G03gN8AFKiP3fzE3OskUF4LorBW0v8al6kl0TAE2YyJn8 +oYELXUSgWGv/CNwbl39hx9s+2uBoQHDVvRBHRuTm+2FvLOzssLFbNPZyxtBrFN0P +w3PHtIln+aFb0fjADDtwMZQrAHiiWLZtIBARPtgIEpT88bi9Prxo/X/K1/kSGc6j +UOAqsj6/wanJQ4SFBM7F +=6GEf +-----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |
