Hi to all porters, On Sat, Feb 20, 1999 at 10:23:57AM +0000, Dom Mitchell wrote: > >Synopsis: gtop build broken This is not a flame... The breakage is in libgtop, which needs to include "sys/types.h" in the headers... The gnome meta port is also not up to date, it doesn't install half of the ports. Is there any way of marking ports with a variable which says "Please don't send-pr on this port, it is work in progress"? Vanilla has been updating to GNOME 0.99.8, and he is only about half way through. With the ports. I've also done some work on the GNOME ports, and they break things all over the place... so much for freature freeze. The GNOME ports need to be marked as 'flaky' until they hit 1.0, at which point they should be expected to work as a group. It'll just cost extra version number bumping to mark them as broken when the base library upgrading starts. Or the upgrading must be held back and done as one mega commit, which places more work on the maintainers, and will delay the upgrading. Someone should close this PR.
