(that's all I've got, else we'll move on...) 17:21:05 4.7.90 builds are already done too? 17:21:12 That's the next topic. :-) 17:21:14 it's in kde-redhat's kde-testing repo too, but my primary host there is down at the moment. 17:21:56 k, lets talk about 4.7.90 then... 17:22:01 #topic kde 4.7.90 status 17:22:34 pretty sure all (most!) of 4.7.90 is in rawhide now, pending a few new pkg review splits (for kdeutils, kdeaccessibility) 17:22:37 4.7.4 from kde-testing works fine, solid-upnp enabled with setting SOLID_UPNP=1 17:23:01 I'll do kdeutils reviews, pls. someone should take care about kdeaccessibility reviews 17:23:16 * rdieter hopes to do some kdeaccessibility ones today too 17:23:31 #info most of kde 4.7.90 in rawhide now 17:24:01 #info some pkg reviews for split kdeaccessibility, kdeutils still need to be done 17:24:05 4.7.4 works fine for me, I'm not able reproduce the lokalize bug 17:24:25 rnovacek: which bug is that do you remember? 17:24:30 but I didn't try earlier, so not sure if fixed 17:24:49 IIRC, the Lokalize bug was simply a missing dependency. 17:25:04 We added the dependency, so if everything is working now, everything should be fine. 17:25:08 .bug 753414 17:25:09 ? 17:25:10 rdieter: Bug 753414 Lokalize: Project overview doesn't work, missing dep on kdesdk-strigi-analyzer - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=753414 17:25:21 rdieter: yes 17:25:27 that one should be fixed now, yeah 17:25:56 my bad for doing package spilts, and not following README.PACKAGERS provided by upstream 17:26:05 .bug 742583 17:26:09 rnovacek: Bug 742583 konsole with terminus font cuts off descenders of characters - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=742583 17:26:17 it's still broken 17:26:30 So let's take this off the list of fixed bugs. 17:26:34 rnovacek: interesting, the upstream fix for that is included in kde-4.7.4 tarballs 17:26:45 will need to reopen upstream bug too then 17:26:47 but can be fixed by checking bidirectional something in konsole setting 17:26:48 So the fix doesn't work? :-/ 17:27:09 Hmmm, so they only fixed the BiDi case? 17:27:20 I'll recheck later to be sure 17:27:37 maybe there's more than one bug here 17:28:01 rdieter: Speaking of kdesdk, we should move the remaining files in the main package to 1 or 2 subpackages, so that it's really an empty metapackage. 17:28:14 that BiDi was IMHO suggested as workaround for original bug, so it doesn't need the fix 17:28:17 And we should probably change comps-f17 to list the subpackages rather than the metapackage. 17:28:51 Kevin_Kofler: feel free to suggest how to do the subpkgs then. I basically gave up trying to come up with something usefull, and just stuffed into the main pkg. :-/ 17:28:51 metapackages still will be available? 17:29:12 nucleo: yes (for the foreseeable future) 17:29:17 Yes, but sticking them into comps is not that helpful for people who want to customize their installation. 17:29:54 Kevin_Kofler: re: comps , if we're adding all the splits, yes, do keep the metapackages out of comps 17:30:08 imo 17:30:27 rdieter: is 4.8.90 in kde-unstable? I'm considering giving it a try 17:30:47 rnovacek: not yet, I'd started the builds yesterday, not sure how far it got before my host died. :( 17:31:25 rnovacek: ok, no rush 17:31:31 rdieter: ^ 17:31:45 Ill announce it when it's ready and available, promise. :) 17:32:09 awesome :) 17:32:51 so, I'll take the task of adding to comps the split packaging... (the ones done so far anyway) 17:33:21 any objection to the idea to keep the metapackages out of comps? 17:34:35 Not from me, as long as the metapackages really are empty. 17:34:43 (which is not the case of kdesdk, which needs to be fixed) 17:35:09 Kevin_Kofler: +1 17:35:23 Kevin_Kofler: +1 17:35:32 The stuff in kdesdk needs to go to a kdesdk-kdeaccounts or kdesdk-kdeaccounts-plugin subpackage. 17:35:51 Not sure about kdesdk-devel with that one header file in it. 17:36:29 I'd suggest moving that to a new kdesdk-kprofilemethod-devel and have kdesdk-devel also be a metapackage. 17:37:01 -common with the license files is fine, and the rest is already in subpackages. 17:38:17 ok, sounds reasonable to me 17:38:41 I think kdesdk-kdeaccounts is probably sufficient for the first subpackage name. 17:38:50 agreed 17:41:02 #action rdieter to add split packaging to comps-f17 17:41:17 #topic Feature pages 17:41:34 Kevin_Kofler: update on gsoc feature page? 17:41:58 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Plasma_PackageKit_Integration was approved by FESCo in their latest meeting. 17:42:17 (It didn't get moved to the accepted category yet, but it was accepted.) 17:42:46 jreznik: You wanted to file a feature page for 4.8, didn't you? What's the status of that? 17:43:55 regardless, we do really want a kde48 one, whether the writeup is done by jreznik or not. :) 17:44:30 Indeed. 17:44:31 ok, I'll start it, sorry it's not yet done... 17:44:52 jreznik: sucker, err, thanks! 17:44:57 ;-) 17:45:23 #action jreznik to init a f17 kde48 feature page for fesco 17:45:54 what we want in f17 feature? big one or smaller ones (like active in separate one etc.) 17:46:02 #info fesco accepted Kevin_Kofler's https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Plasma_PackageKit_Integration 17:46:19 2012-01-24 Feature Submission Deadline 17:46:28 jreznik: good question, I'd say whatever we're equiped to handle 17:46:30 but I'll try to send it to fesco asap 17:46:43 more feature pages mean more visibility, marketing yada yada, but it's also more work 17:46:52 rdieter: I'd do Active separate - for marketing purposes 17:47:11 active really isn't part of kde48, true 17:47:31 * rdieter is tempted to do something for kde-telepathy too 17:47:48 depends on how good it gets, and how much we end up integrating it into the default install I guess 17:48:02 then we want software composite effects rendering - it's standalone feature for gnome shell, I was tempted to do it for plasma too, but it's enough in 4.8 I think 17:48:25 rdieter: but good idea to promote it more 17:48:32 even we can't finish it by f17 17:48:38 ok 17:49:03 I'll do that 4.8 and active ones 17:49:03 #action init f17 kde-telepathy feature (rdieter) 17:49:13 can help with telepathy one 17:49:22 #action init f17 plasma-active feature (jreznik) 17:49:33 jreznik: thanks 17:49:37 I think we should look for kdelibs features which didn't make it in due to the kdelibs freeze and backport them all, and loudly advertise that. 17:50:00 There's a feature for improved cookie privacy settings, for example. 17:50:13 Kevin_Kofler: If you find anything worth doing the work for, and supporting it, can certainly consider it on a case-by-case basic 17:50:30 basis even 17:51:01 Yeah, I already brought up the cookie stuff (and we agreed that it'd be nice to have), I'm going to look into patching that in for sure. 17:51:11 yep, if you volunteer to maintain it :) 17:51:13 I need to see whether there's more stuff we could use. 17:51:20 Kevin_Kofler: ok 17:51:48 The good thing about the freeze is that kdelibs is going to change very little, so feature backports shouldn't be hard to keep applying. :-p 17:53:00 ah, that's right indeed 17:54:55 ok, sounds like that's wrapped up 17:54:58 #topic open discussion 17:55:03 anything else today? 17:56:10 Yes, one more thing… 17:56:31 WTF is that libnepomukdatamanagement-copy.so in kdepim-runtime? 17:56:57 Where is that copied from and would it be possible to change the non-copied version instead? 17:57:04 oh, the unversioned shlib you recently moved to -lib ? 17:57:08 Yes. 17:57:14 -copy sounds very bad to me. 17:57:17 no idea, honestly 17:57:35 I would assume/hope upstream did it for good reason 17:57:39 many devel packages installed when it was in -devel 17:57:58 * jreznik never understood reason for -copy bundled libs... 17:58:03 The nepomukfeederlib you made static also looks suspicious to me. 17:58:15 rdieter, jreznik: I suspect it is because of the kdelibs freeze… 17:58:27 Is that a kdelibs lib? If so, can the copy in kdelibs be updated instead? 17:58:40 I checked wrt nepomukfeederlib, other distros are packaging the static lib. 17:59:03 the only reason we ended up with a shlib, was because of our default cmake macro unconditionally enabling shared libs 17:59:53 and that's a configuration upstream obviously didn't expect or test for (else, everyone would've seen the same ftbfs as we did) 18:00:05 The "nepomuk" in the name makes this sound suspicious to me, but it might really belong into kdepim-runtime and just use Nepomuk. 18:00:16 That -copy lib, OTOH, really sounds like it doesn't belong there. 18:00:49 feel free to poke upstream about it,they'd hopefully be able to definitively answer these questions 18:00:58 For nepomukfeederlib, adding that explicit STATIC makes sense in any case, please upstream that if not already done. 18:01:10 * rdieter upstreamed it :) 18:01:45 if the -copy lib doesn't get linked in too many places, maybe it could be made static too 18:02:56 I think that if we decide it belongs there, it's OK as shared. 18:03:32 The reason nepomukfeederlib doesn't work as shared is because it's missing export macros, I presume. 18:03:39 we're hitting the top of the hour, Kevin_Kofler , you want to ask upstream about it? 18:04:05 About that -copy lib? Yes, please ask what's up with that one. 18:04:28 I'm' asking if *you* want to do the asking. :) 18:05:03 else, I'll leave it as an open task in the log 18:06:00 #task ask kdepim upstream on the rationale/purpose for libnepomukdatamanagement-copy.so 18:06:36 ok, I'll wrap up, thanks everyone! 18:06:39 #endmeeting
