[gentoo-dev] www-client/chromium stabilisation and arch testing

2025-01-28 Thread Matt Jolly
Hi All, Take 2; emailing the affected arch aliases directly only got one response which included a suggestion to take this straight to -dev. As you're probably aware, www-client/chromium is a frequently-updated package with a not-insignificant build. Chromium has an enormous attack surface and i

Hi Michał, Sure. No worries - Given the trivial nature I'll update the variable before merging rather than sending a V2 unless there's other feedback that requires it. :) On 3/12/24 23:26, Michał Górny wrote: On Tue, 2024-12-03 at 22:22 +1000, kan...@gentoo.org wrote: From: Matt Jol

Hi Michał, I use llvm-r1 in a few packages, and for the intended purpose of consistently selecting and depending on a specific LLVM I've had no major issues. Overall things work well, and the addition of LLVM_SLOT USE_EXPAND for -r1 has made influencing the selection as an end-user (and develop

Hi Jaco, Sounds reasonable. It's unmaintained, has c99 issues, and it looks like you were actually the last activity upstream, logging a ticket... in 2016, so I'm more than comfortable with your suggestion. When you're ready to submit the PR for xl2tpd you can send out the last-rites email to -

Hi Jaco, May I suggest simply calling this USE_EXPAND QUIC_IMPL so that other packages can potentially re-use as well? looking through ::gentoo at least net-dns/dnsdist and net-dns/knot also has a quic support, using ngtcp2 and/or net-libs/quiche. With openssl 3.2 hopefully approaching stab

But where do we draw the line? Are translation tools like DeepL allowed? I don't see much of a copyright issue for these. I'd also like to jump in and play devil's advocate. There's a fair chance that this is because I just got back from a supercomputing/research conf where LLMs were the hot t
