Nearly <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gentoo.org\/proj\/en\/qa\/treecleaners\/maintainer-needed.xml\"><strong>6.45%\u00a0<\/strong>of the available packages<\/a> lack a maintainer. However, not having a maintainer is not always a bad thing. Actually, most of these packages still work flawlessly. However, looking at the history of orphaned packages (Figure 1) one may observe that their number grew significantly over the past year.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_286\" style=\"width: 615px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/maintainer-needed-jan-2014.png\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-286\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-286\" alt=\"Figure 1\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/maintainer-needed-jan-2014.png\" width=\"605\" height=\"340\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/maintainer-needed-jan-2014.png 605w, https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/maintainer-needed-jan-2014-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/maintainer-needed-jan-2014-250x140.png 250w, https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/maintainer-needed-jan-2014-150x84.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 605px) 100vw, 605px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-286\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 1<\/p><\/div>\n<p>AFRAID NOT! It is not as bad as it seems \ud83d\ude09 Truth is, the reason for the high number of unmaintained\u00a0packages is the outstanding retirements that happened last year. The retirement team has been actively tracking developer and herd activity removing those who have been inactive for a long time. However, this only justifies the increased number of packages since 2010. On the other hand, the absolute number of packages is definitely something to worry about. Nobody is going to remove unmaintained packages from the tree for no good reason. However, if one of them breaks at some point, then chances are the package will go away if nobody steps up to pick up the pieces. If <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gentoo.org\/proj\/en\/qa\/treecleaners\/scripts\/check-orphaned-packages.py.txt\">you are using<\/a> any of these packages, you can easily help us maintain it through the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.gentoo.org\/wiki\/Project:Proxy_Maintainers\">proxy-maintainers<\/a>\u00a0project.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Council_News\">Council News<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One first agenda topic concerned the EAPI of the profile directories. Since\u00a0 all non-deprecated profiles require EAPI=5 support already for a year, the\u00a0 council decided to give an additional 30 days notice and then switch the\u00a0 whole profile tree to EAPI=5. This also means that the deprecated 10.0 profiles will\u00a0 be removed. Next, the move of the Gentoo Linux Enhancement Proposals (GLEPs) to the wiki\u00a0 and improvements to the GLEP submission process were addressed. Without much discussion, the decision was to follow the suggestions by Chris Reffett (creffett) and update GLEP 1 (which defines the procedures) and GLEP 2 (an example text) accordingly. Summarizing the most important new points, GLEP proposals are now submitted on Bugzilla, can be\u00a0 discussed on the gentoo-project mailing list instead of gentoo-dev if appropriate, are written in MediaWiki markup and stored on wiki.gentoo.org, and are licensed CC-BY-SA 3.0. Regarding the status of the PGP key requirements GLEP that has been in the works for a while, it will be the first test case for the new procedures, and we&#8217;re waiting for Robin Johnson (robbat2) to finalize the text. Finally, during open floor discussion the question of architecture teams lagging behind in stabilizations came up again. The main question here was whether similar rules as already in place for alpha and ia64 should be put in place for all stable arches (maintainers may remove the last stable version of a package if the stablerequest is delayed without reason for more than 90 days). Any decision was deferred; discussion on the mailing lists should take place first.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Catalyst_News\">Catalyst News<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After a long period on &#8220;life support&#8221;, the catalyst repository is going to have major changes introduced to master in the next few days. The work done in the <a href=\"http:\/\/git.overlays.gentoo.org\/gitweb\/?p=proj\/catalyst.git;a=shortlog;h=refs\/heads\/rewrite-on-master\">rewrite branch<\/a> by Brian Dolbec, is finally going to be merged into master through the <a href=\"http:\/\/git.overlays.gentoo.org\/gitweb\/?p=proj\/catalyst.git;a=shortlog;h=refs\/heads\/pending\">pending branch.<\/a> Anyone using catalyst to produce stages is advised to use the latest release (currently 2.0.16). If you need to track the stable branch, please use the catalyst 2.0.9999 ebuild that tracks the 2.X branch. 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 <a href=\"https:\/\/bugs.gentoo.org\/enter_bug.cgi?product=Gentoo%20Hosted%20Projects\">bugzilla<\/a> with Component: Catalyst. 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.

On Friday, January 10, the machine powering <a href=\"http:\/\/overlays.gentoo.org\/\">overlays.gentoo.org<\/a> went down. The same day, we reached out to our sponsor who is providing the machine. Unfortunately, the email was only received and acted upon the following Monday where a remote reboot command was issued that sadly could not resolve the issue. Thus, a datacenter technician was dispatched to assess the state of the machine. He found out the mainboard has died. We had hoped that we could restore service by plugging the disks into another machine provided by the same sponsor only to find out that they were in fact still good old IDE drives. Don&#8217;t believe me? Here they are:<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_300\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/overlays-drives.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-300\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-300\" alt=\"IDE drives from the old overlays.gentoo.org machine\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/overlays-drives-300x222.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/overlays-drives-300x222.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/overlays-drives-202x150.jpg 202w, https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/overlays-drives-150x111.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/files\/2014\/01\/overlays-drives.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-300\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">IDE drives from the old overlays.gentoo.org machine<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Thanks to the tireless efforts of our sponsor&#8217;s contact,\u00a0Vassilis, we were able to finally get the overlays data on Thursday (as well as the great picture above). After importing the data into a new, empty overlays setup provisioned by our configuration management and a quick test of a few repositories, I was glad to be able to announce the service restoration. Sadly, the bad patch we&#8217;ve been going through wasn&#8217;t over yet: Several of the repositories showed corruption which forced us to start looking into the backup and merge the recovered live state with a backup taken a few hours before the outage. Having suffered from all these little setbacks, on Saturday we were able to finally fully restore the service. What have we learned during this outage?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>First and foremost: Redundancy would have spared us almost a week of downtime. Thus, we&#8217;re looking into preparing a second machine to host Overlays.<\/li>\n<li>Very important as well: Keeping up an information flow. The incident marked the baptism by fire for our <a href=\"http:\/\/a3li.li\/2013\/11\/now-live-gentoo-infra-status\/\">recently launched<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/infra-status.gentoo.org\/\">Infrastructure Status web site<\/a>. We were glad to have this site at our disposal to <a href=\"http:\/\/infra-status.gentoo.org\/notice\/20140110-overlays\">update<\/a> the community on developments and the status of the service. We&#8217;re hoping that next time (let&#8217;s hope not too soon though) even more people know about this site and use it.<\/li>\n<li>The decision to restore from backup should have been made earlier. In the end, we ascertained only a couple of hours of work were lost and could easily be re-pushed onto the server.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Special thanks again to\u00a0Vassilis and his colleagues for their help and to you, our community, for bearing with us during the outage as well as countless offers of help with hardware and hosting.<\/p>\n<h1><span id=\"Portage\">Portage<\/span><\/h1>\n<p>This

Overlays vary from very small to big enough in size. As a result they slow down the majority of Portage operations. That happens because overlays do not contain metadata cache. The cache is used to speed up searches and the building of dependency trees. A neat trick is to generate local metadata cache after syncing overlays.<br \/>\n<code><br \/>\n# layman -S<br \/>\n# emerge --regen<br \/>\n<\/code><br \/>\nThis trick also works in conjunction with eix. <strong>eix-update<\/strong> can use metadata cache generated by emerge &#8211;regen to speed up things. To enable this, add the following variable in <strong>\/etc\/eixrc<\/strong>. <code>OVERLAY_CACHE_METHOD=\"assign\"<\/code><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Bonus_Fun_tips\">Bonus: Fun tips<\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Have you mooed today?: <strong><code>emerge --moo<\/code><\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Emerge <strong>games-misc\/doge<\/strong> and\/or <strong>games-misc\/cowsay<\/strong> to beautify your motd \ud83d\ude09<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This month in GMN:1 Gentoo News1.1 FOSDEM 20141.2 Tracking orphaned packages1.3 Council News1.4 Catalyst News2 \u00a0Job Openings3 Gentoo Developer Moves3.1 Summary3.2 Moves3.3 Additions4 Infrastructure4.1 New SSL Certificates4.2 Fortune is Fickle: Restoring overlays.gentoo.org5 Portage6 Security7 Package Removals\/Additions7.1 Removals7.2 Additions8 Bugzilla8.1 Activity8.2 Closed bug ranking8.3 Assigned bug ranking9 Tip of the month9.1 \u2026 <a class=\"continue-reading-link\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/2014\/01\/31\/gentoo-monthly-newsletter-january-2014\/\"> Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr; <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":146,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/146"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=279"}],"version-history":[{"count":54,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":359,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279\/revisions\/359"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=279"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=279"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.gentoo.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=279"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
