Thanks for this update, I just want to remind something to everyone, becaus=
e it
happened a lot recently.

Before breaking any ABI (SHLIB num bumped here in this case) all committers
should first talk to portmgr sync with them and then commit (and send a hea=
sup
to portmgr saying the commit has been done)

Why so? just because we are trying to provide packages for head, that means=
 that
before the commit we need to know it will happen and we have time available=
 to
upgrade the build jail for head, then once we know we would be able handle =
the
upgrade of the jail in a good timeframe, then the heads up mail allows us to
know that the upgrade should actually be done (svn up will get the modifica=
tion)

So next rebuild of packages will be done from scratch instead of incrementa=
l.

We are putting a lot of effort in trying to get packages working for head, =
this
small 2 mails will save us a lot of time, and a lot of stress.

regards,
Bapt

I think we should really mark this has a policy in the committer handbook.
