 Grimmauld (any/all) | vlc or jellyfin qt6 first? | 16:21:01 |
 emily | well VLC doesn't pull in WebEngine so I care less | 16:21:18 |
| emily | what I was wondering is whether we can drop it | 16:21:25 |
| emily | but it sounds like not before 26.05 probably | 16:21:30 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | vlc doesn't do wayland-native, so i kinda care... | 16:21:42 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | but yeah | 16:21:50 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | tbh, we should get that qt5 plasma drop merged within the next few days and migrate some of the optionals away from qtwebengine, after that just hit it and let the swarm descent | 16:22:41 |

| Grimmauld (any/all) | worked decently well in libsoup ocne we were under 100 users: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/427813 | 16:23:20 |
 Marie | it does but it's a bit broken so they default to x11 | 16:23:54 |
| emily | we need to backport the mark though | 16:24:31 |
| emily | but it's probably fine | 16:24:32 |
| emily | that libsoup thing should also be backported but the fallout seems bad | 16:24:40 |
 K900 | No it's not? | 16:25:20 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | we had most of the libsoup migrations merged before 25.05 for a reason | 16:25:19 |
| emily | actually isn't fcitx5-chinese-addons sort of important | 16:25:23 |
| K900 | It's pretty active | 16:25:26 |
| emily | I know fcitx is very popular with Chinese users | 16:25:29 |
| emily | but not sure if that package specifically is | 16:25:35 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/398783#issuecomment-2824682603
We need this no matter what since it is security relevant and will block further security updates in the future.
Sandro actually had a good point here. And as such on 25.05 the libsoup2 usage is below 100 too
| 16:26:27 |
| emily | https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-media-player/pull/599 😔 | 16:26:41 |
| emily | well I just mean I see people complaining regularly about all their stuff being broken because of it | 16:27:00 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | but thats offtopic here, would continue that in #security-discuss:nixos.org , lets get back to qtwebengine | 16:27:08 |
| emily | backporting that kind of stuff hurts | 16:27:06 |
| emily | I'm satisfied by the list here though, I think we can move forward with it | 16:27:20 |
| emily | I don't think we need to block Plasma removal on it | 16:27:34 |
| emily | er, vice versa | 16:27:42 |
| emily | because it's just … choosing what error people get | 16:27:44 |
| Grimmauld (any/all) | fair enough | 16:27:54 |
| emily | or at least we can get a PR up marking it as vulnerable and land them together | 16:27:57 |
