| compengi | hi Armageddon | 20:48 |
|---|---|---|
| compengi | have you tried ubuntu 12.04 | 20:48 |
| Armageddon | no | 20:51 |
| Armageddon | but I hear they fixed a lot of stuff | 20:51 |
| Armageddon | and I hear it still has a lot of problems | 20:52 |
| compengi | i see | 20:55 |
| compengi | Armageddon, are you using mint? | 21:20 |
| Armageddon | compengi, Gentoo | 21:28 |
| Armageddon | :p | 21:28 |
| Armageddon | I'm a contributor remember ?: | 21:29 |
| compengi | nice! | 21:32 |
| compengi | and what are you enrolled into? | 21:33 |
| Armageddon | architecture testing | 21:43 |
| Armageddon | I also have my own overlay now | 21:43 |
| compengi | hmm.. and what do you test there? | 21:43 |
| compengi | and nice about the overlay | 21:44 |
| Armageddon | I test packages for amd64 for stabilization | 21:52 |
| Armageddon | if I feel it's stable enough to become stable I give it my acceptance | 21:52 |
| Armageddon | 2 people testing a package will make it eligible to become stable, that's when the dev makes it stable and people have new updates :D | 21:53 |
| compengi | ah, cool | 22:25 |
| compengi | :) | 22:25 |
| compengi | gentoo packges used to be mostly outdated and lag few versions behind. what's the state now | 22:27 |
| compengi | are you a general 64bit tester or for specific packages | 22:27 |
| Armageddon | general | 22:28 |
| Armageddon | and no, gentoo packages were never outdated | 22:28 |
| Armageddon | the stable ones are but you have the choice of using unstable packages which are very up to day | 22:28 |
| Armageddon | date* | 22:28 |
| compengi | yep | 22:29 |
| Armageddon | so you can't really complain that they are not up to date | 22:29 |
| Armageddon | if you want them stable you have to use stables one, if you don't care for stability go unstable | 22:29 |
| Armageddon | I prefer hybrid systems, most of its components are stable and some applications that I want to be newest I have them unstable and latest | 22:30 |
| compengi | i used todo that with pidgin | 22:36 |
| compengi | are there still sometimes issues when you update core packages? | 22:37 |
| Armageddon | I do it with a lot of packages | 22:37 |
| Armageddon | there are never issues with updating, I never had any in 2 years now | 22:37 |
| Armageddon | but sometimes you have to issue commands which are usually given to you by messages | 22:38 |
| Armageddon | if you don't read the news/messages given to you by portage your system will most probably break | 22:38 |
| compengi | yeah, like the old days :) | 22:40 |
| compengi | sadly, i don't have spare time to play with linux anymore | 22:41 |
| compengi | i only have little time for me | 22:41 |
| compengi | i've been sitting on windows 7 for around 2 years now | 22:42 |
| compengi | i need it for work, so even there i don't have a chance to use linux | 22:43 |
| Armageddon | not cool at all | 22:44 |
| compengi | yeah, just not much interest anymore | 22:49 |
| compengi | so how are you doing overall | 22:51 |
