<para>Removal of Package Information</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
In each page involving packages and their installation,
|
|
there is a section called "Package Information," including
|
|
various information such as the download link(s), download
|
|
size, and estimated build time.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Over the next few days, this section will be removed from
|
|
every page. The download links will remain in each page.
|
|
"Download size," "Download MD5 Sum," "Estimated disk space
|
|
required," and "Estimated build time" will be removed.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
When packages are updated, all this information has to be
|
|
checked, measured, and updated, demanding a lot of work to
|
|
maintain everything. The removal of the "Package Information"
|
|
section will make things much more manageable. Not to mention,
|
|
I am terrible at maintaining projects as it is. SBUs are also
|
|
good to know for each package but it can take a lot of time to
|
|
measure and calculate the SBUs for each package. I cannot
|
|
provide accurate SBU timing at this time. On a Ryzen 5 1600
|
|
(has 6 cores and 12 threads), when typing and copy+pasting
|
|
commands, going through the entire book took me 35 hours.
|
|
If you have an application or script that can parse GLFS and
|
|
run the commands automatically, the time will be comparable
|
|
to Gentoo.
|
|

|
|
<para>
|
|
Not the best of announcements, not the best of news. Sorry
|
|
but this will help me maintain this book better.

<para>This is the first Bulletin Entry!</para>
|

|
|
<para>
|
|
This was made in anticipation for a few updates to come out, making
|
|
changes that might be seen as weird or controversial. This offers as
|
|
a section to explain those changes. <xref linkend="changelog"/> doesn't
|
|
provide a good format to explain why commits and changes are being made,
|
|
but rather just what changes were made.
