So, whats the current status of the netCDF transition?
We still need to verify all reverse dependencies before we can request a
transition slot.
Ross was working on this, but he's on vacation now. No one else is
actively testing the reverse dependencies AFAIK. I'm not going to start
with that before getting the gdal & spatialite transition done. If you
want to help with the netcdf transition verify all reverse dependencies
with the new netcdf, netcdf-cxx, netcdf-cxx-legacy & netcdf-fortran
packages.
All the netcdf-* packages appear to build, are there outstanding bugs
or
should we just kick off the transition?
No, we're not ready for the netcdf transition yet.
We need to make sure to track the split packages properly, I think I
have a working configuration, but it doesn't handle the
netcdf-cxx-legacy package very well (its library name remains the same,
it's just built from a different source).
What about collisions with the gcc-5 transition?
The GCC-5 related transitions are going to be painful, that's why I hope
to get the gdal & spatialite transitions done before GCC-5, but it seems
unlikely.
Kind Regards,
