Thanks to God there was no breakage, but the GNOME is a complex stuff, so at least full gnome test build is required when updating one of the core components (something which wasn't performed, judging from his commit message). Also we are in the RC phase now, so any update to the main GNOME (or KDE) componennts should be carefully weighted (again, something that wasn't performed), so we would be able to ship 4.4 with working GNOME/KDE - a target that we weren't reached so far, as of RC1. I much less care about libxml2, but libiconv is used extensively by various core GNOME parts, which makes occasional breakage very likely. Especially this applies to mi@ - he is well known for his low QA skills (see my follow-up commit to the libiconv for details). -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
