#################################################################### # # When you add an entry to the top of this file, add your name, the date, and # an explanation of why something is getting masked. Please be extremely # careful not to commit atoms that are not valid, as it can cause large-scale # breakage, especially if it ends up in the daily snapshot. # ## Example: ## ## # Dev E. Loper (28 Jun 2012) ## # Masking these versions until we can get the ## # v4l stuff to work properly again ## =media-video/mplayer-0.90_pre5 ## =media-video/mplayer-0.90_pre5-r1 # # - Best last rites (removal) practices - # Include the following info: # a) reason for masking # b) bug # for the removal (and yes you should have one) # c) date of removal (either the date or "in x days") # ## Example: ## ## # Dev E. Loper (23 May 2015) ## # Masked for removal in 30 days. Doesn't work ## # with new libfoo. Upstream dead, gtk-1, smells ## # funny.
