https://invent.kde.org/graphics/gwenview/-/commit/1592fa119db3370cf963cf627c37955f65eebc59

Could I ask for a re-spin of Gwenview to pick this up? Thanks a lot!

Not a new issue but worth mentioning: https://bugs.kde.org/483425
kdenlive fails to build since 24.02.0 if qtbase is built with gles rather than 
opengl (that's the case for our arm builds)

The dependency freeze for KDE Gear 24.05 is this thursday, it would be good if 
we get some tie breaking comment here so far we have two votes (the person 
proposing it for yes "obvious, so only gets 0.5 value for yes") and (me voting 
0.5 against).

Cheers,
  Albert

Hi,

I'd like to propose the KUnifiedPush library (https://invent.kde.org/libraries/
kunifiedpush) for inclusion in KDE Gear.

This was stalled for some time but we finally have a default server 
installation thanks to Carl, so this is now actually useful for people not 
running their own infrastructure as well.

There's two users of this already, Neochat and Tokodon, both have it as an 
optional dependency at the moment.

Thanks,
Volker

+1 Having KUnifiedPush released at the same time as NeoChat and Tokodon would 
be very helpful.

My answer when someone else asked the same question for other apps on Matrix 
this morning.

I'd say feels a bit late with dependency freeze in 3 days and freeze freeze in 
10.

I'd prefer 2 weeks before dependency freeze, could live with 2 weeks before 
freeze freeze. [1] 

Can we wait for 24.08 for this?

Cheers,
  Albert

[1] This is to give people enough time to say yes/no/question things.

Subject: Moving KGraphViewer & Massif Visualizer to KDE Gear
Message-ID: <1927898.7Z3S40VBb9@klux>

Hi,

I would like to propose moving both KGraphViewer (invent.kde.org/graphics/
kgraphviewer) & Massif Visualizer (invent.kde.org/sdk/massif-visualizer) to 
the KDE Gear release bundle on next occasion.

Both are rather stable in their feature-set and "community-maintained".
As such community maintenance, they just got finally their Qt6 port completed 
and turned Qt6-only in the master branches.

Ideally the "next occasion" would already be KDE 24.05, if that would be still 
acceptable given the history of the repos.

While adding more work onto the Gear release managers already now, it would 
save individuals (like myself) from trying to do custom releases work, where 
otherwise the Gear release automation could free some time to e.g. do any 
needed regression finding & fixing.

Cheers
Friedrich

To be honest, I don't feel very decisive about this one. For me it seems 
even a tad too simple for monthly releases. On the other hand, it doesn't 
have any insane dependencies and is well behaved, so in absence of other 
rules I'll add my +0.1.

How about a compromise: I'll do stand-alone releases for both and we have 
enough time for feedback before Gear 24.08?

Thanks for the offer, Heiko. "Works for me" when it comes to trying to avoid 
release work :P so would happily pick up that.

>From a pragmatic world approach I would still think that... anyway, main 
motive is to get the Qt6 ports of both out next and have releases 
"automated"/"schedule-forced" as ensured perspective :) Even more with the bad 
fonts finally fixed while at it, which annoyed me for years.

So in case the last-minute door to 24.05 will not open here after any more 
discussion, would then approach you about further steps directly, thanks 
again.
Guess I would get serious here around end of April, for some rough planning 
from my side. New version numbers had already been set in the code (and also 
registered at bugs.kde.org), just letting current code changes sink in a bit 
(and be processed by the good bloody-edge consumers) before moving on :)

Cheers
Friedrich

Fair enough, we can fill the gap with manual releases if needed.

Thanks Bernhard.

Release team, could we consider a Solid 6.1.1 release for this given the 
severity of the issue and the fact that it doesn't backport cleanly?

Ok, so with your 0.1 the answer, this is a "yes" and I've added it to the 
release.

Subject: CI moved to Qt 6.7 for Linux builds
Message-ID: <CA+XidOEhybM9GmtDHCMsdArCpOSMGinAx_XBcgktzR+qMWZAog@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

I have just flipped the switch that has moved the CI system over to using
Qt 6.7 for Linux builds on our SUSE images.

Should you see any issues with builds failing as a result of packages being
missing in the registry then please submit a merge request to
sysadmin/ci-management to ensure that build dependency is added to our seed
jobs.

I'll leave the Qt 6.6 package registry and container images in place for
another week or so then will schedule them for removal.

As part of this I have also updated the list of projects with Qt 6 only
master branches. Any residual Qt 5 build artifacts the CI system was
holding for those projects have now been purged, which may impact
downstream projects that depend on those projects that are still on Qt 5.

On an adjacent note, i'd also like to schedule removing CI support for
release/23.08 and Plasma/5.27 builds (by purging all their binaries we
currently hold) for the Qt 5.15 series.

While checking however I note that several projects still have activity on
those branches. Can we please confirm whether any further releases are
expected, as i'd prefer to remove anything that isn't being properly
maintained anymore.

Thanks,
Ben

kdiff3 will make one or two releases but needs only frameworks. This support will end in three months. master is qt6 only now.

So after discussion the "next occasion" would be 24.08, and until then some 
stand-alone releases will happen (currently prepared).

In case of positive decision on the proposal for Gear inclusion, prepared 
already some respective MRs:

Subject: KF5 kio-extras and future releases
Message-ID: <6374130.JxFpSNCNT5@xps15>

I have not included a package of the kf5 branch of kio-extras in the KDE Gear 
24.05 release.

At least two people have asked me about whether it should be included or not.

I honestly don't know what to say :D

In my mind it's a no and i'll explain the reasons below, feel free to disagree 
or prove my points nonsense.

As far as I understand kio-extras-kf5 was created because:
 A) We needed a KF6 kio-extras so that KF6 apps can use extra-kio stuff
 B) We needed a KF5 kio-extras that could be coinstalled with the above KF6 
kio-extras so that KF5 apps can use extra-kio stuff

Now, question is should we keep releasing kio-extras-kf5 or not?

Given KF5 kio is in a relatively deep freeze, no new changes in kio-extras-kf5 
are going to be needed to adapt to changes in kio. 

kio-extras-kf5 is extracted from a branch named "kf5" that I guess not many 
developers are really paying attention to because it's neither master nor the 
usual release/xx.yy branch.

It could happen that we need a very important bugfix to kio-extras-kf5 and it 
would be commited to that branch and we would need to do a release.

But given how that doesn't seem super likely and how much of a pain it is to 
our release process to release it (we need to release two tarballs from the 
same repo but from different branches) I would really really say, no,  we 
don't release it with every single KDE Gear release (until we drop KF5 
support), if there's any eventual bugfix we'll just release a new tarball (in 
the 24.02.x naming?).

Cheers,
  Albert
