Title: Catalyst head changes Author: Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto Content-Type: text/plain Posted: 2014-01-31 Revision: 1 News-Item-Format: 1.0 Display-If-Installed: dev-util/catalyst After a long period on "life support", the catalyst repository is going to have major changes introduced to master in the next few days. The work done in the rewrite branch[1] by Brian Dolbec, is finally going to be merged into master through the pending branch[2]. Anyone using catalyst to produce stages is advised to use the latest release (currently 2.0.16). If you need to track the stable 2.X branch, please use the catalyst 2.0.9999 ebuild. Anyone wanting to help with catalyst development and testing is encouraged to use the 9999 version and report issues to the catalyst team, pending the understanding that master may be broken during the next few months. Please report any issues to our bugzilla[3]. You can always find us in the #gentoo-releng irc channel of freenode. To be clear, these changes will only affect catalyst-9999 and the master branch of the repository. If you're not using either, this doesn't affect you.
