Re: Releasing 0.9.1

[Ludovic Courtès]

So!  It seems that this time releasing is really hard.  :-)

I’d like to do a rebuild without any package replacements, in the hope
that the release itself has no or few grafts in place, mostly because:

  • performance is currently degraded in the presence of grafts, in
    particular the repeated “updating the list of substitutes” (I have a
    rough idea on how to fix, but we’d rather not hold our breath);

  • they increase disk usage, so the USB images would be bigger.

So, on this branch, I’d incorporate:

  dbus and dbus/activation
  eudev and eudev-with-blkid
  graphite2 and its replacement
  perl and its replacement
  openssl and its replacement

I don’t want to base it on ‘core-updates’ because there are potentially
disrupting changes in there.

Thoughts?
