It is crasing in the network services stuff. These crashes are very
similar to the ones I frequently see in WebPositive. In HaikuDepot,
contacting the server can simply be commented out for the release, but
wouldn't it be nice to have WebPositive work more stable than it
currently does?
+1. The Network Kit has some major problems somewhere (I vaugely recall
an IRC discussion with Jessicah, who discovered something like 1.
network threads take forever to die 2. cross-thread deletion causes lots
of problems, and this wasn't helped by #1).
Also, it says at
https://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/R1/Alpha5/StatusAndCoordination that we
won't be upgrading Web+ until after the merge... Is this such a good
idea? The new Web+ (tagged today) fixes a lot of issues, I hear, with
not many new features to worry about breakage.
What are the plans with regards to show-casing PM with this release?
Aren't there multiple issues left that we wanted addressed when we
last discussed the release back in 2013? One of them was .pkg
breakage, which I worked on a bit, but there are open tickets for
specific packages.
This is a release blocker for me. If we aren't BeOS-compatible, there's
no sense releasing at all, since that was the goal of Haiku R1.
