A change for committers, a change for pkgsrc

Two completely separate and unrelated changes:

First, Alex Hornung has added a check to look for certain lines in a commit message, and add a MFC reminder note to the commit message if they are found.  MFC, if you haven’t heard it, means ‘merge from current’, or moving a change from dragonfly-current to the last release version.

Second, with the next quarterly release of pkgsrc coming up, there’s some old packages that will get dropped.  Speak up if you need them to stick around.

 

Donation credit where it’s due

Jeremy Chadwick donated an SSD to DragonFly developer ‘josepht’.  Thanks, Jeremy!

Normally I’d take this moment to point out the other donations that could be useful for DragonFly developers…  but there doesn’t seem to be any pending requests.  Anyone working on a hardware driver that needs something physical to test against?  Here’s the moment to note that.

Who’s listening?

Do you have a DragonFly workstation?  That you play audio on?  Do you have headphones hooked up?  Is it using Intel High Definition Audio?  (snd_hda)  Does connecting the headphones disable the system speaker?

You can probably guess exactly what I’m trying to troubleshoot given the above questions.
