[Monotone-debian] Bug#432658: plan

[Ludovic Brenta]

Not so imminent.  There is some pushback from the linux and Mozilla
maintainers because gcc-4.2 introduces build failures in those
packages (see the archives of debian-release for the past couple of
days).  Also, the glibc maintainers would like to stage a transition
to a new version of glibc before the transition to g++-4.2.

Monotone 0.35-2 is now 8 days old, but I very much doubt it will enter
testing on Tuesday or Wednesday, because it is waiting for boost,
which itself has RC bugs preventing it from entering testing.

Therefore, I don't think monotone is under any kind of pressure.  I
would rather suggest to move forward with the long-term plan to not
depend on boost anymore, and upload 0.36 whenever it is ready.  If g++
is still a problem at that point, let's just disable arm temporarily,
and reinstate it later when g++ is fixed.
