I don't know of any ebuilds, but how would you propose doing it exactly? (As there are 2 git repositories zen-stable.git and zen.git)
Possibly a "stable" use flag for it?

I personally thing that ~arch should pull in zen-stable.git ... the "unstable" zen.git should be keyword masked (no keyword)

good, I would not necessarily totally favor a 9999 ebuild.
I think managing a git repository should be done manually if that was the route the user wanted to go.
Otherwise, ebuilds for tagged releases are great!
and i agree, stable release ebuilds should be ~arch, while non-stable release ebuilds should have empty keywords.

I agree as well. That will open me up to be able to set up zen seeds. That's something I've wanted to do since I started playing with zen-sources. They're the only sources I use on my systems. I think they're the best!
Blessed be!

I dont think I understand you 100%
zen-sources-9999[stable] will pull the stable git tree whilst the [-stable] will pull the unstable
Since both of them are live git snapshots, they wont be marked as ~arch anyway
They wont have keywords and they will be masked
This is what I suggest |

Live git snapshots? We (the zen developers) don't want people using "live ebuilds". Ebuilds should be for releases only. If a user wants something newer than a release they should be using git directly.
I guess I will have to make some ebuilds to demonstrate what I mean with the keywords.

why not live-ebuilds (-9999) ?
just mask them like the other qt, kde, etc. ebuilds if problems arise they're not supported and should be tracked down by using git
it's still more convenient to have live-ebuilds ... (I won't use them)

How about some willing contributors PM me if willing to help contribute zen-sources ebuilds. (If i've never heard of you, I probably won't fully trust you - but many of you guys on the forums I do)
The more people we can get active from the gentoo community, the better.

As long as dodo1122 doesn't mind that he's been accused of liking men (as if there's something wrong with that), or being depressed, I have no issues whatsoever with the naming conventions for Zen kernel sources. Brain Fuck Scheduling might be seen as offensive, until you realize what a brain fuck it is that your computer is running faster than ever. Watching glibc compile in less than fifteen minutes...that is a brain fuck!
Not only do I look forward to all the new and exciting stuff coming in Zen sources, I also look forward to the names. Yes, I chuckle at them. I even chuckled at the title "dodo1122 likes men".
A word is a word. There are a lot more offensive things under the sun than some "dirty" words. Social injustice, homophobia, war for war's sake and profit, global climate change, and racism are far more offensive to my senses than whether or not BFS means brain-fuck scheduler or beguilingly fast scheduler, or booger fart scheduler.
Blessed be!
Pappy

| Live ebuilds is just for convenience. Nobody is forcing you to use them. They are masked and without keywords just like every other git ebuild. It is all about options |

It may be worth mentioning that this is back in it's overlay form. Make sense why I couldn't find it in the portage tree.

zen-kernel.org is coming online! (there will be no backed up content, it will all need to be re-done, re-written)
And instead of using drupal this time, we chose plone as a cms.
You can register at anytime on zen-kernel.org, git will be up soon and content will slowly restore itself to the website!
We are also going to search for a host for a mailing list.

I know that it's not that big matter, but in my opinion it would be more "kosher" to use [unstable] flag, that stable would be used by default and you need to set "unstable" use flag to get unstable version. (like keywords, you use arch by default and to use unstable you have to add ~arch but not opposite way). i hope u understand me, i have some problems with english and self explanation. |
