[oe] [2011.03-maintenance] Pull request for binutils (+ waiting for master patch)

[Mats Kärrman]

Apologies for mixing up my binutil issues...

I have submitted a patch: "[PATCH] binutils_2.18: update SRC_URI to avoid manual delete" that is in patchwork now. I am following the mailing list, but have seen no comments about it.

What I do hope for is this patch to be committed so that I can pick this one and a related one and create a maintenance pull request for both.

Perhaps I'm just too impatient...

BR // Mats

So I started to look for information about how to make the patch go to master. I then discovered that the patch is already in patchwork but I fail to see how I make it go from there to being committed, considering I'm a user without repo write permission. Could someone tell me the next steps or point me to somewhere where this is described?

Well, if the patch has already been sent (and thus exists in the patchwork) there could be either one of a few situations:

* it's recently submitted, and no one has had any time to look into it yet.
* it could have been overlooked.
* it could have received comments that need to be addressed before it can be committed.

So you could always check to see if you can find any discussions of the patch on this list, otherwise ask the question again.

Cheers,
Anders
