[Mageia-dev] packages pushed to cauldron updates_testing before release

[David Walser]

Packagers,

If you pushed a package to updates_testing in Cauldron before Mageia 2 was released, please make sure you re-push it if you want the fix/update included in Mageia 2.  The change should already be in the SVN, so all you need to do is resubmit it to the build system (and file a bug with an advisory and assign it to QA of course).

Mandriva just pushed to the build system a fix for initscripts and kbd which had been in SVN since 2010.2 was branched for release, and it waited for years because they forgot to re-push it to the build system after the release.  Whoops :o)
