But that's not my call, especially since Joel > says there seems to be a policy about that. There isn't really a policy per se. It's just my understanding that we currently do not have a process where updates are brought in on a regular basis -- we stay with a given version until someone who needs an upgrade send a patch to make the changes he needs. I agree that having a policy can be helpful. Tom's proposal sounds fine to me, especially since we have someone who kindly volunteers to make it happen, at least this time around. Meanwhile, even if the group decides to reject this as a policy, I don't think we'll reject patches that upgrade our import of gnulib, as this is something we're bound to do the next time we need some fixes made upstream. So, anyone willing to do an update can propose it, whether we have a policy or not, and it'll be a useful change on its own right, IMO. > > I'm not sure whether we want to attempt an update on the GDB 12 branch. > > No, I don't think we should. It's too late for GDB 12, IMO. Agreed. On the branch, we should make local and targeted changes instead. -- Joel
