[opensuse-packaging] Easter and Milestone 5
Hi, Milestone 4 is out and Milestone 5 is going to be released next week. But there is a catch: Germany (and a lot of the western world) has holidays either friday or monday (or both in the case of Germany). So while I moved the release data of Milestone 5 to friday next week, this only means we will still take a couple of packages on april, 6th - but the big majority of packages needs to be submitted by tomorrow. With 274 diffs in devel projects, that is a lot to submit. So please take care not to miss the deadline. Note that M5 will bring a new Xorg and a new kernel - and a lot of people have vacation around the holidays, so if you don't make it, there won't be time for extra hand holding. And for those that keep wondering about milestones: Milestone 5 is the last release before we head into feature freeze. After it I only allow leaf packages to be updated - including a text freeze for all of it. Milestone 6 is then the first "Beta" - i.e. a milestone after feature freeze, so Milestone 5 will traditionally be the worst, please don't make it even worse.

I pushed GNOME 2.30.0 (~130 packages).
And for those that keep wondering about milestones: Milestone 5 is the last release before we head into feature freeze. After it I only allow leaf packages to be updated - including a text freeze for all of it.
Hrm. Is there an exception to get GNOME 2.30.1 in (will be released on April 28th)? I'd prefer to have it in, obviously :-) Also, on the top of my head, I know of those cases where I'm not sure what should be done: + pixman: we currently have 0.17.x, which will lead to a stable 0.18 in the next few weeks. Would be better to have the stable version, I guess. + poppler: we stayed with 0.12.x so far, but I would expect the 0.13 branch to lead to a 0.14.0 stable version soon (need to check). And given the fact that poppler usually gets affected by security bugs, I'd prefer to use 0.14.0 for 11.3 if possible.

+ pixman: we currently have 0.17.x, which will lead to a stable 0.18 in the next few weeks. Would be better to have the stable version, I guess. Hmm, let's cross this bridge when we come there. Some "stable" versions are more stable than others.

And given the fact that poppler usually gets affected by security bugs, I'd prefer to use 0.14.0 for 11.3 if possible. There aren't that many apps that rely on poppler, but those that do are ugly to port if not provided from upstream. Security is a topic, but we need to

I don't see parted 2.2 in the list waiting to go in. Apparently it is still only in someone's home directory. It is waiting on a device mapper update prior to going in (iirc). I sincerely hope it gets in before the feature freeze because it brings new features related to 4K physical sector disks as well as raid topology alignment, etc. This is all documented in: https://features.opensuse.org/306443 Thanks Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

Yes, that's the only reason why it is not yet in Factory. I don't feel confident enough to update and push DM myself, so I asked its mainainer to do so - now I was given promise he will update it till end of this week. If not, I'll push my 'minimal' DM update required to compile parted and parted-2.2 myself next Tuesday, so it will surely get to Factory and 11.3.

I am preparing libxml2 which is 3 revs behind current upstream. I know this will trigger a lot of rebuilds, but there are some significant fixes worthy of including in 11.3, including CVE's. Patching the current 2.7.3 IMO is not realistic, given the number of fixes. However, I will not push it until I have done some regression testing and for the moment, I cannot get the python bits correctly building... Just an FYI of the weather forecast for next week...

Peter, is libxml2 going into M5? I'm not sure at what time M5 gets locked in stone, but its some time tomorrow I believe. Not sure Stephan will allow you to upgrade it after that since we'll be in feature freeze as I understand it.

You might change multimedia:apps audacity as well, it says newer version 1.3.9 available and audacity is at version 1.3.11. Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
